The spokesperson for the coalition, Ikenga Ugochinyere, warned that any attempt to withhold funds from the people of Rivers State could trigger a crisis that may destabilize constitutional governance.

Ugochinyere stated that credible evidence from a reliable source indicates that this group, in collaboration with anti-democratic elements, has filed a legal process at the Federal High Court, allegedly seeking an injunction to stop the monthly fund allocations to Rivers State LGAs.

According to Ugochinyere, the pro-Wike group remains aggrieved following the outcome of the recently concluded Rivers State LGA elections, which were held in compliance with a Supreme Court ruling that mandated the conduct of LGA elections.

The coalition spokesperson further revealed that intelligence suggests the pro-Wike group is boasting that the case will soon be assigned to judges who have previously delivered swift ex parte orders in favor of Wike's camp, warning that the opposition is closely monitoring the situation and will not hesitate to alert the Nigerian public if necessary.

He emphasized that LGA allocations are constitutionally mandated funds belonging to a sovereign arm of government and cannot be hijacked, especially given the presence of valid LGA leadership.

Ugochinyere urged the FCT Minister's camp to accept defeat and abandon any alleged plans to undermine the people of Rivers State, as he called on President Bola Tinubu to intervene and ensure that unscrupulous elements do not lead the nation into anarchy or tarnish democracy under his administration.
