The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom
Wike of Rivers State has expressed interest in accepting peace following the
face-off with Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State.
Wike, however, vowed never to allow anybody drag him down
amid his new stance for peace.
The immediate past governor disclosed this at his residence
in Port Harcourt while addressing the traditional rulers of Ogbaland who
visited him on the occasion of his 56th birthday.
According to Wike: “No politician will fold his hands and allow himself to be dragged down.
“I and my team would accept peace but we won’t allow
ourselves to be dragged down because when we go down, who will protect our
people. Who will talk about our own interest.”
The crisis between Wike and Fubara had snowballed into disharmony
within the state legislature as 27 lawmakers had defected to the All
Progressives Congress, APC.
As the crisis deepened, the state House of Assembly was
razed down by fire and Fubara’s administration demolished the complex.
