Fubara Downplays Crisis With Wike

Governor Siminalaye Fubara of Rivers State has downplayed the crisis between him and the former governor, Nyesom Wike, saying there is nothing wrong if a father and a son have a problem.

The governor added that the issue would be resolved amicably.

Fubara told the Chief of Defense Staff, General Christopher Musa, that the crisis was nothing for anybody to worry about, as it will be settled and peace will eventually return to the state.

General Musa led a military delegation to the Government House in Port Harcourt, the state capital, while on a visit to military formations in Rivers.

The governor further said it was not out of place for a father and a son to have problems, but stated that the issues would be resolved.

Fubara while downplaying the crisis with his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, said there was no real problem between them, even as he commended President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to ensuring peace and security in the country.

Fubara said: “For our dear state, I know everybody is wondering what’s going on, what’s not going on?

“We are okay, there is no problem. If we have an internal issue, it will be resolved and everything will go back to normal.

“There is nothing wrong if a father and a son have a problem, if there is any problem.

“But I don’t think there is anything. Whatever it is, we will definitely resolve the issue.”

Meanwhile, about 122 Pro-Fubara youths, including the Rivers State chairman of National Youth Council, NYCN, Ambassador Chijioke Ihunwo, are currently standing trial at the magistrate court on a five-count charge of conspiracy,  causing a riot, damaging the gate of the state assembly Speaker, unlawful assembly and causing breach of public peace.
