The minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has disclosed one of the reasons he cannot reconcile with Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
He alleged that Fubara removed a chief from his family and replaced him with someone else.
On Wednesday, the FCT minister made this statement while responding to journalists’ questions at a media parley in Abuja.
This statement comes amid the ongoing political crisis in Rivers State with Wike and Governor Siminalayi Fubara at the center of the dispute.
“Sometimes when you people talk about this peace, you don’t take everything. You don’t just sit outside to talk.
“Look at me, a former governor, Minister of of the FCT, Governor (Fubara) had the temerity, the audacity, because he has money from federation account, because he has more Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), will enter my own family to remove a chief and make another person a chief,” Wike said.
