Don’t Be Unstable, Tell Bola Tinubu What You Want, Nyesom Wike Urge Siminalayi Fubara

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has advised suspended Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, to be forthright and clearly express his intentions to President Bola Tinubu, rather than exhibiting inconsistent behavior.

Wike made this known in a statement issued by his Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media, Lere Olayinka, on Saturday.

According to Channels Television, the minister emphasized the importance of sincerity in resolving political disputes, stating that actions contrary to calls for peace only aggravate tensions.

“It is not enough to visit people and plead for peace.

Those who genuinely want peace must also act in line with that goal,” Wike said.

“You cannot claim to seek peace while simultaneously sponsoring people to insult the President and the First Lady.”

The minister condemned the actions of a group of women alleged to be loyal to Fubara, who staged a walkout during the Renewed Hope Initiative empowerment programme organized by the Office of the First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, in Port Harcourt.

He labeled the incident “embarrassing” and apologized to the President and First Lady on behalf of the people of Rivers State.

“Any insult directed at a representative of the First Lady is a direct insult to the Office of the President.

As a leader in Rivers, I apologize,” Wike stated.

Speaking from China where he is on official duty, Wike described the walkout as “very disturbing” and cautioned Fubara’s supporters against actions that could bring ridicule to the state.

This development adds to the escalating political tension between Wike and his successor, Governor Fubara, amidst ongoing leadership
