‘Help, that’s not my husband,’ wife of former Rivers state Head of Service raises alarm (video)

The wife of the former Head of Rivers State Civil Service, Mrs Florence George Nwaeke, has alleged that her husband was coerced to organise a press statement in which he made damning allegations against the suspended governor of Rivers state, Siminalayi Fubara.

Nweke who resigned last week, alleged that the suspended governor ordered the bombing of the state House of Assembly complex in 2023 and had plans to unseat President Tinubu.

In an interview with Channels TV, the wife who could not contain her tears, said that she had not been able to reach her husband since he left Rivers for Abuja.

According to her, 

“When he got to Abuja, he called that he had landed. I said, ‘Thank God’. The next thing I saw this night (Friday night): people were calling me and said he got an interview. I said, ‘What interview? Interview for what?’ Not until I saw things flying on the internet that he granted an interview. What happened? I said, ‘That is not my husband. That is not my husband.’

So I sent him a message. I said, ‘Are you under duress?’ I sent him a message. I said, ‘Have they kidnapped you? Talk to me now. Why are you not talking to me?’.

Oh, Jesus, help me. Nigerians, help me. My husband is in trouble. My husband is in trouble. My husband is in trouble. My husband is in trouble. Look at the message I sent to him. See the message I sent to him.

Governor, help me. My husband is in trouble,” she said. “He is in trouble,” she said, claiming the husband resigned under duress.

Florence said her husband resigned because of the pressure some persons were mounting on him to sign documents that will implicate Fubara.

“So, he said he would resign. Instead of this wahala (problems) let him leave them. He now wrote his resignation (letter).”
