Rivers Crisis: What I Told Fubara When He Came Begging – Wike

 

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike has opened up on what he told his estranged political godson, Siminalayi Fubara after he came begging.

 

Wike spoke while confirming that the suspended governor visited him to plead for peace alongside two governors from the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.

 

At a media briefing on Monday, Wike said he told the embattled governor that he (Fubara) does not have the capacity to make peace.

 

According to the minister, the governor cannot be making moves for peace while his supporters are doing otherwise.

 

“I told him (Fubara) I don’t think you have the capacity to really make this peace. It’s not easy; if you’re making peace, your people are demonstrating every day.

“If you are making peace, your people are busy on television insulting people,” Wike said.

 

Recall that Fubara had on Sunday cautioned his supporters to deviate from actions that could hinder the peace he is pursuing.
