Wike Sacks Media Adviser

The Rivers State Governor, Chief Nyesom Wike, early on Friday morning, sacked his embattled Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Opunabo Inko-Tariah. Inko-Tariah, who is also the Publisher of Port Harcourt- based Hard Truth newspaper, on a local radio at 10 a.m., claimed that he resigned, alleging that Wike starved his office of funds and refused to take his advice. Phone lines of Inko-Tariah were switched off at the time of writing this report.
