In a strongly worded post on X, Rochas remarked that Imo State Governor Hope Uzodinma had demonstrated to Wike that “politics is not cho-cho-cho,” a phrase implying that political power is neither automatic nor guaranteed on projects that were heavily publicized, often with strong media attention.
He suggested that this strategy was used to convince people that state funds were being spent for public benefit, while questions about personal wealth and spending remained unanswered.
Tariah raised concerns about reports of luxury items allegedly linked to Wike, such as a Rolls-Royce and a private jet.
He questioned how such expensive assets could be afforded through public service salaries alone, from local government leadership up to ministerial positions.
He also claimed that Wike, believing he might become Nigeria’s president, built a presidential-style villa in Rivers State using public funds.
This, he said, symbolized excessive control over the state’s resources, adding that Wike’s influence is so strong that it appears he owns a large part of Rivers State.
Tariah contrasted this with Governor Fubara, describing him as less interested in luxury and more focused on governance.
He called on Wike to stop interfering and allow the current administration to lead without pressure or control.
In his words, "Probably because he thought he was going to be president, he built another presidential villa in Rivers State, taxpayers' money."

Wike should not be pitied, he is wicked and greedy. He want to show the whole world that he is a magical politician like Bola Tinubu who can ride on his past to the top. Capital no. Tinubu was very logical in his preparation for the top job
