Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has advised President Buhari to listen to the demands of the people or set Nigeria on fire.
His advice
came just 48 hours after Wike hosted in Port Harcourt a meeting of South South governors
and a Presidential team, headed by Professor Ibrahim Gambari, Chief of staff to
President Buhari.
At the
meeting the governors made a demand for the restructuring of Nigeria and also
the relocation of oil companies from Lagos to Niger Delta.
The usually
voluble and blunt governor spoke again today on a Channels TV programme,
Sunrise Daily.

“We must
understand in this country that political leadership is very key,” Wike said.
“Having the
political will to implement what the people want is very serious.
“I don’t want
to talk about the issue of distrust or no trust in government.
“People have
raised such issues, that they don’t think that nothing will come out of all
this dialogue.
“I don’t
agree with that. I believe that if the president does not do, given the
opportunities he has now, then, he will be putting Nigeria on fire.”
