Rivers: You Can’t Win All Fights -Fubara Tells Wike
Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State has urged his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, to let go of any grip he desires to have over Rivers State and allow peace to reign in the state.
Fubara made the call on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Monday.
He said he does not regret conducting local government election in the state last Saturday despite the resistance by Wike’s men in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and the All Progressives Congress, APC.
The governor said he had all the guts to do these things, asking his predecessor to let go of whatever hold he thought he had over the South-South state.
Fubara said he had kept all understanding he had with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory to ensure peace in the state.
“There is nothing I have not done on this earth for peace to reign. I can tell you the number of times I have knelt down to beg that let’s allow this issue to go. I have done everything,” Fubara said.
On what he would tell Wike if they meet, Fubara said, “I’ll tell him (Wike) that it has gotten to a point where he needs to let go. We need peace in this state.
“You don’t necessarily need to win all the fights; at times, you just let go for the sake of the good people of Rivers State and the love that you have always profess for the state. We need to secure the state.
“Fubara will leave tomorrow. Who knows who is going come. It might be through him or through another person but we need to secure the state.”
