From the way wike has been boasting on national TV, you will know that he has a hand in the judiciary and is being backed up by the presidency, the fight is a fight that the governor alone will find it difficult except the good people of Rivers state come out en mass to support him, this is a fight against the federal government, and with the technicalities to which the supreme court employed in giving that judgement, you will obviously see that they never had good intentions. They annulled the LGA elections and still had to bring back martins as the speaker, and capped it all of with the stoppage of the allocation to Rivers state, all of these is a pointer to what they want.
