The Rivers State Government has denied rumors that Governor Nyesom Wike’s son was killed in the United States.
In a statement issued on Wednesday, the state Commissioner for Information and Communication, Chris Finebone, denied rumors that Wike’s son was shot dead in the United States as a result of the governor’s alleged activities in the recently concluded Rivers State Presidential and National Assembly elections.
‘Breaking news: Wike’s only son shot dead in California, US over father’s act in Rivers election,’ the tweet reads.

The social media photo depicted the governor’s son in a convocation gown after his graduation from a UK university last year, flanked by Wike, his wife Justice Suzette, and their daughter posing for the cameras.
Finebone, on the other hand, stated in a statement headed ‘Once again, another lie’ delivered to newsmen in Port Harcourt on Wednesday that the governor does not have a son or any child in the United States.
He labeled the post as the work of “wicked persons” focused on blackmailing and destroying the reputation of Rivers State Governor, and advised members of the public to disregard it.
The statement partly read, “This is a big lie by evil people. For the avoidance of doubt, Gov. Nyesom Wike has no son or child in the US. By the special grace of God, the governor’s children are safe and doing well where they are.
