Protest In Rivers State As Wike Calls Ijaw Minority, Says Governor Fubara Not An Ijaw Man


 

Protest Erupts Over Wike's Controversial Statement on Ijaw Pride and Late Pa. E.K. Clark. Bayelsa, Nigeria — Tensions soared in Bayelsa State following the latest remarks made by Former Rivers State Governor and the FCT Minister- Nyesom Wike, which sparked a major protest led by the Ijaw National Frontiers. The protest was in response to Wike's controversial statement that described the Ijaw ethnic Nationality as Minority in the South. Wike's comments were perceived by many in the Ijaw States in the Niger Delta as an attack on the pride of the Ijaw people.

In a speech made earlier this week by Barr. Wike was perceived in a derogatory manner to the Late Ijaw Stateman Pa. E.K. Clark, a prominent Ijaw leader, a remark that many found disrespectful and divisive. Pa. E.K. Clark, who passed away in 2025, had long been a revered elder statesman, known for his tireless advocacy for the Ijaw people, their rights, and their cultural heritage.
Barr. Nyesom Wike should allow Gov. Sim Fubara to govern River state in peace, creating division and undermining the incumbent governor will would rather bridge the peaceful coexistence with the Ikwerre people and the Ijaw people will not take that from the FCT Minister- Nyesom Wike.
The Ijaw Nation condemned Wike's statement, calling it "an insult to the Ijaw people" and "an affront to the dignity of our ancestors." The protest which saw thousands of people gather in the heart of Bayelsa's capital, Onopa-Yenagoa to demand an apology from the FCT Minister- Wike and a public retraction of his comments.
