Peace deal for Wike, Amaechi vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
I want to begin with Rivers State. Whatever affects the state directly, affects the country indirectly. There is so much federal wealth in that area that if we fail to encourage peace, this nation will continue to quake economically.And I must commend Governor Nyesom Ezebunwo Wike for waving the white flag. Elections are over, Rivers must not continue to bleed. He could have made mistakes, I saw him cry on national television over the bloodletting.
Since Wike has shown enough capacity to embrace everyone, I would like him to set up a 10-man peace committee. Membership should be drawn from various parts of the country. Udenwa also understands the politics of Rivers State. He lived in Port Harcourt as an accountant with Monier Construction Company[MCC]. I guess his wife, Theresa, was also a lecturer in one of the universities there.
Senator Omu will add the motherly touch. She retired from the Nigeria Prisons Service as a controller. That means that she has observed human behavioral patterns for a long while. Her husband, Gen Paul Omu, was also a military governor.There cannot be peace without history. The committee must identify some powerful forces behind Rivers politics. The backgrounds of the different stake holders should not be brushed aside.
