How Occultic Forces Overran Rivers For Eight Years, Says Ex-Deputy Gov
2 min readFor eight years, occultic forces were in control of Rivers State and their activities led to attacks on the opposition, says a former deputy governor of the state, Dr Tele Ikuru.
Ikuru did not, however, say the name of the governor under reference. He did not also say which era he was referring to. But in a statement on Thursday made available to TNN, Ikuru said the current governor, Sim Fubara was changing the sound of the music.
He said: “Rivers State has seen a disturbing shift in its political landscape, driven by the rise of cultism within its governance. This shift began when a gubernatorial candidate, notorious for cultism and diabolic practices, gained power through a campaign that misled the public about his true nature. Once in office, he imposed a cultic stranglehold on the state.
“The cultism/diabolic governor persisted in power for eight years and brought fear, division, and underdevelopment. Opposition figures were targeted, their businesses bombed, and their lives threatened. Recently, this violence has resurfaced, most notably with the bombing of the Action People’s Party (APP) secretariat, signaling a return to the dark days when cultism reigned supreme in our Government House.”
Ikuru said with the coming of Fubara into the picture, the people were being liberated from the shackles of poverty. “Despite the horror and silence that have allowed this crisis to persevere, there is hope. The people of Rivers State, in collaboration with their God-fearing and liberator governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, are determined to break free from the shackles of cultism.
“Together, Rivers’ People have rejected this destructive system. We Stand with Gov. Fubara for transparency, accountability, and the restoration of peace and progress to our state. For the Demon of Destruction (DoD) and your diabolic oat-taking associates, your days are over. Even Abuja has discovered you and will soon evict you to your proper place in history.”
