Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State has taunted the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, over the power tussle in the state.

Fubara vowed never to cede power to Wike and those willing to push him out of office.

Wike and Fubara have been at loggerheads over control of Rivers State resources and political structure.

To stop the crisis from spreading further, President Bola Tinubu had mandated Wike and Fubara to sign a peace pact.

However, Fubara vowed never to relinquish his office because he would continue to ensure development in the state.

The governor spoke during the crossover service at St. Paul’s Archdeaconry Parish in Opobo Town on 2024 New Year’s Eve in Opobo/Nkoro Local Government Area.

According to Fubara: “I want to urge everyone of us here, don’t be frightened. What they want is this red biro; it is still with me.

“They have failed. You are the winner; we are the winner because we are still signing with the red biro. And, so long as we are signing with the red biro, development will continue in Rivers State.

“I wasn’t the governor when I stood for you; I will continue standing with you.”

Obedience with fabricated fake news. They are all in pain because the issue was settled by the President

saintopus:
This governor could not protect Edison Ehie, its a bit confusing to me as a Rivers man

The resignation of Ehie to me is a demonstration of the weakness of the governor except he has another plan.

If you are not from Rivers State no need to quote me

Olatunji1929:
if you think that fight is settled wait till Fubara win at supreme Court that's when you will know that Ojuyobo and wike have been fooled by Fubara, only a foolish person with no ambition will accept such useless peace deal
