Breaking News: Wike shocked by lieutenant Yerima’s lineage

Nigerian politics and military circles are buzzing after reports that Lieutenant Yerima, who recently stood his ground against former Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike, is none other than the son of General Mohammed Yerima, a man widely regarded as one of Nigeria’s most respected and integrity-driven Army generals.

Sources say Wike attempted to have Lieutenant Yerima arrested and detained after the officer refused to bend to political pressure. However, his efforts were thwarted when he discovered Yerima’s strong backing from higher authorities and his family’s distinguished military legacy.

General Mohammed Yerima’s reputation for discipline and honesty has long been celebrated within Nigeria’s armed forces. That same spirit appears to guide his son, who reportedly followed orders “from above” and refused to compromise his duty.

This revelation has left Wike stunned, as Lieutenant Yerima’s actions are now seen not only as lawful but also as a reflection of his father’s values.

“Integrity Nah Water”

The phrase “Integrity Nah Water” has gone viral across Nigerian social media, symbolizing the idea that integrity flows naturally just like water through those who embody it. Many Nigerians are praising Lieutenant Yerima for standing firm, calling him a role model for young officers and a reminder that principles outweigh politics.
