Rivers State Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike yesterday restored all the rights and privileges due Mr. Celestine Omehia, a former governor.

From Godwin Tsa, Abuja
Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Mahmud Mohammed, yesterday confirmed that Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike visited his office at the Supreme Court Complex in Abuja, on two occasions this month, but said he was not around to receive him.
The media aide to the CJN, Ahuraka Isa, who reacted to a report on Wike’s visits, said the CJN never had prior appointments with the governor.
In a statement, Isah explained that on the first visit by the governor, the CJN was away in Saudi Arabia observing the Lesser Hajj while on the second occasion, he was at a meeting of the Legal Practitioners’ Privileges Committee, where candidates shortlisted for the rank of the Senior Advocate of Nigeria were being interviewed.
A national daily (not Daily Sun) had reported that Wike’s visits coincided with the day the Rivers State Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal sitting in Abuja, conducted hearing into an application filed by the governor to challenge an order permitting his opponent to inspect the electoral materials used for the poll that brought him into office.
