Update On Nunieh: Wike Rescues Ex-NDDC Ex -NDDC MD, Whisks Her Away | The Source Magazine

By Adesina Soyooye

In a dramatic manner, Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, personally stormed the Port Hacourt home of former NDDC MD, Ms Joi Nunieh, whose home was surrounded by Security Agents, this morning, and whisked her away to Government House.

Her home had been blocked this morning by over a dozen policemen, who surrounded her house, and stopped her from going to Abuja to testify before a probe panel of the House of Representatives, on the NDDC.

In a distress call to friends of hers, Nunieh said she feared she would be taken away.

She has been having a serious, dirty, altercation with the Minister for  Niger Delta,  Godswill Akpabio. Both have been hurling accusations on each other.

A couple of days ago, Wike had warned that nothing should happen to Nunieh, and that Party  or no party, he would protect her, and would hold Akpabio responsible if anything happened to her. Nunieh is pro-APC, Wike is PDP.  Nunieh is a Rivers daughter.

He has kept to his words.

This is not the first time Wike would protect a Nigerian citizen in PH.

In the wake of the DSS condemnable invasion  of the residences of Judges, Wike had stormed the home of an Appeal Court Judge, and stopped them from taking him away.
