 In another development, the progressive Yoruba Youth Congress has urged the president, Borla Tindabu, to publicly condemn the actions of his appointee, Nisam Wieke, in the ongoing political crisis in the river state. In a press conference today, the Yoruba Youth express concern that the president's silence might leave many to assume his support for Wieke's actions. The group said President Tindabu should openly denounce the assault on democracy in the river state and direct all government institutions to act in accordance with the law. It also called on the 27 lawmakers who defected to reconcedure their actions. President Tindabu should call Nisam Wieke to order by insisting that if he focuses on his current national assignment as the minister of FCT, a role that he has neglected while focusing on being the puppet master of river state. We call on the 27 former river state House of Assembly members to seek no proper legal guidance on the choices available to them. Going forward, since it appears they are not beneficiaries of sand legal counsel based on their past and ongoing actions.
