The sacked Chairman of Ikwerre Local Government in Rivers State, Dr. Ishi Samuel, has accused the state governor, Siminalayi Fubara and his Chief of Staff, Hon. Ehie Edison of hiring gunmen who go around local government councils, shooting at sacked local council chairmen and their supporters.

He also alleged that the armed thugs destroyed property.

Samuel in a viral video said Governor Fubara brought insecurity to the state in the name of governance.

He, therefore, called on President Bola Tinubu to intervene in the crisis ravaging the state.

The visibly angry former council chairman said, “They are going from local government by local government, breaking local government secretariats, looting council properties in the name of governing a state and you say Governor Fubara is best for democracy.

You will recall that there was tension in Port Harcourt, the state capital as youths allegedly loyal to Governor Fubara had taken over all the council secretariats in the state and prevented council chairpersons from gaining entrance.
