The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has addressed the whereabouts of Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, following the conclusion of the emergency rule in the state.
Speaking during an appearance on Channels TV’s Politics Today on Thursday, Wike clarified that there is no legal obligation requiring Governor Fubara to immediately resume official duties.
It was reported that the governor’s whereabouts remain unknown, even though he was expected to resume office today.
However, Wike suggested that the governor might have had other engagements.
He said: “There’s no law that says he must resume work today as governor. I don’t understand the way we operate. Okay? I was sworn in today, for example, does not mean I go to office tomorrow. You don’t know what my programmes are. You don’t know what the governor has scheduled to do.
“You don’t even know where he is. You don’t know, governance is not that you must be in the office governing. No, it’s not true.
“Do you know whether he’s in Abuja doing one or two things? Do you know whether he’s in Lagos? I’m not a CSO, his protocol officer.”
