The Director-General of the National Oil Spillage Detection and Response Agency (NOSDRA), Emeka Woke, has faulted recent criticism by former Rivers State Governor Rufus Ada-George against the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.
Woke disclosed this in a statement released to Newspot on Monday.
His comments come after Ada-George, in an open letter to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, attacked Wike over his comments against the Peoples Democratic Party’s governors.
However, Woke described Ada-George’s actions as misguided and stated they should be disregarded.
He said President Tinubu has the discernment to see through the smoke and mirrors of propaganda waged against Wike.
“He has no standing as a neutral mediator, especially given his dubious legacy. Apart from being a former governor, what qualifications does he possess that justify his role as an elder statesman?
“His motives are tainted by a clear upland/riverine bias. His lack of support for Dr. Odili’s governorship ambitions is a glaring example of his entrenched partisanship.
“The same divisive tactics he employed in the past are evident today, especially now that Nyesom Wike, the FCT Minister, is involved.
“This is despite the blatant ingratitude displayed by Gov. Sim Fubara toward a man who defied the odds and his party to secure the governorship,” he stated.
