It is a staged performance by desperate political actors who want to destroy Governor Fubaras legacy. The video exposes the entire setupan Abuja hotel room, a single TV station, and a script handed to him like an actor in a bad movie. This is not how truth is revealed, the statement read.RMG accuses Nweke of political conspiracyNwaeke was silent while in office, but suddenly, after resigning, he miraculously remembers that the governor ordered attacks? Where was this conscience of his before now? If he truly had evidence, why did he not report to the security agencies? Why now, and why in a staged hotel-room drama? Pastor John queried.Family allegedly disputes Nwaekes claimsEven his wife, Florence Nwaeke, has raised the alarm, saying she does not recognise the man in that interview. She has asked Nigerians to help her find her husband, whose numbers are no longer going through. This is a clear sign that he is acting under pressure, the statement added.RMG calls for calm and investigationThis attempt to falsely implicate Governor Fubara is dead on arrival. Rivers people will not be dragged into this scripted crisis. We call on security agencies to investigate those behind this plot and put an end to these political games, the statement concluded.
