Wike, Fubara Rift Beyond Reconciliation – Fayose

An erstwhile Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, says the cold war between the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike and Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State, has gone beyond reconciliation.

EDITOR’S PICK:

• Alleged N27bn Fraud: Court Grants Ex-Taraba Gov, Ishaku N150M Bail
• ‘PDP Is dead, APC Has Finished Nigeria’ –Kwankwaso
• Protests Rock PDP Secretariat as INEC Halts Voters’ Register Release in Rivers

Recall that the two leaders have been at odds over the control of Rivers State’s political structure, resulting in a divided state assembly and multiple legal battles.

Fayose, speaking on Channels Television described the situation as very unfortunate, emphasizing that his earlier advice to Fubara to avoid Wike’s trouble was given in good faith.

He had offered this counsel shortly after Fubara’s electoral victory.
