The President General of notable Niger Delta socio-cultural group, the Orashi National Congress, ONC, Amb Comrade Emeni Ibe, has highlighted the capacity of Rt. Hon Edison Ehie as a highly resourceful person whose track record speaks volumes.
Amb Comrade Ibe made the remarks following recent online publications suggesting that Ehie Edison should be put aside from the State Government, saying such assertions are entirely unfounded and baseless.
He said, “The recent claims appear to be a calculated attempt to tarnish Ehie Edison’s reputation and sow discord between the State Government and Federal Government led by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu”.
“First and foremost, Rt.Hon.Dr Ehie Edison Esq.DSSRS has consistently demonstrated a commitment to peaceful and constructive dialogue as a means of addressing political and social issues. His track record speaks for itself, showing a dedication to the rule of law and democratic principles, ordinary not responding to such disruptive and distractive activities would be entirely out of character for some of us who have taken it upon ourselves to always speak the truth no matter what.”
“Furthermore, in an age where misinformation can spread rapidly, it is crucial to rely on verified facts and not be swayed by rumours or unsubstantiated claims. Contrary to any position, we still believe in the leadership of Rt.Hon.Dr.Ehie Edison Esq,DSSRS now and come 2027.”
“You will agree with us that it is not uncommon for false accusations to be leveled against prominent figures as a means of discrediting them. This appears to be yet another instance where political opponents are attempting to undermine Ehie Edison’s credibility and influence, even to mobilize support for 2027 Election.”
“Rt.Hon.Dr.Ehie Edison Esq.DSSRS remains focused on his responsibilities and continues to advocate for the interests of the State Government and the Governor Rather than being distracted by baseless accusations, demands he is committed to working towards the betterment of Rivers State and Nigeria as a whole.”
“The online publications suggesting the removal of Rt.Hon.Dr. Ehie Edison Esq.DSSRS are without merit and should be viewed with skepticism. We urge the public and the media to critically assess the veracity of such claims and to seek the truth based on evidence rather than conjecture and overall we trust the Governor will not give it a throught.”
“It is no news that the Executive Governor of Rivers State, Sir Siminalayi Fubara and Rt.Hon.Dr. Ehie Edison Esq, DSSRS, the Chief of Staff, have pledged and rendered their unflinching support to the Administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. On various times and occasions both the Governor of Rivers State Sir, Siminalayi Fubara, and the Chief of State Government House, Rivers State, Rt.Hon.Dr.Ehie Edison Esq. DSSRS, have come out to unequivocally say that they will continue to support President Tinubu’s administration. Anyone behind this recent online publications is the real enemy of the Federal Government led by President Tinubu as such is only targeted at orchestrating chaos and causing more political instability in Rivers State and Nigerian in General.”
“In conclusion, we use this medium to call on His Excellency Sir Siminalayi Fubara, the Executive Governor of Rivers State, to totally disregard and ignore those unscrupulous elements who are fanning the embers of crisis by propagating baseless agitations and demand against your government in Rivers in a bid to set a renewed war between in the Rivers State again. We appeal that they should let him be, he is the defender of democracy in Rivers State and beyond” Amb Emeni Ibe concluded.
