Former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose has advised Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, to make amends with Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, instead of engaging in political confrontation. “Those people leading on Governor Fubara, if Governor Fubara goes down today, they will run away. By now, Governor Fubara would have been history because the moment you are impeached, you’re out of the way. If you read the context of President Tinubu, he took the governor, Governor Fubara, to the cleaners. The move comes amid a protracted feud between former Governor Nyesom Wike and Governor Fubara, which has plunged Rivers State into political instability since late 2023.
