Rivers crisis: Wike rules out reconciliation with Fubara

FCT Minister Nyesom Wike definitively stated on Wednesday that he will not reconcile with Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State.

Wike emphasized that he is standing firm on his decision regarding Fubara and is focused on fulfilling President Bola Tinubu’s mandate, rather than siding with Fubara.

The ongoing feud between Wike and Fubara has caused division within the state House of Assembly, despite efforts from Tinubu and other political figures to intervene and resolve the conflict.

Wike said: “In good conscience, I fought for Fubara to become governor without any regrets and you now say you don’t want to be part of the family; no problem. Aregbesola was brought by Tinubu but he’s nolonger with the president again.

“In all honesty, I can tell you that there is no going back and my people know. What support? Have I come out of the one I did? Some people don’t play politics of integrity, but I do. He’s the one that say ‘dey your dey’ so let me ‘dey my dey.’

“This doesn’t worry me because I’m focused on the mandate Mr President gave me in FCT.”
