The Rivers State Judicial Commission of Inquiry has summoned 109 individuals, including top allies of Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, to testify about the recent attacks on local government secretariats.
Those summoned include Dr. Samuel Nwanosike, Obarilomate Ollor, and Hope Ikiriko, who served as local government chairmen under Wike’s administration and completed their tenure under Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
Also summoned is Hon. Aforji Igwe, a member of the State House of Assembly loyal to Wike.
The commission, led by Hon. Justice I. R. Minakiri, aims to investigate the arson, killings, and destruction of properties at local government council headquarters.
