The Governor of Rivers State, Sir Siminalayi Fubara has made an appeal to his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, to allow peace to prevail in the state.
Fubara made the appeal in an interview with Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Monday, urging Wike to release his grip on the state
“There is nothing that I have not done on this earth for peace to reign. I can tell you the number of times I have knelt to beg to allow this issue to go,” he said.
He said despite opposition from Wike’s men in the APC and PDP, he had no regrets about the local government election recently conducted in the state.
“I have all the guts to do these things,” the governor said, asking his predecessor to let go of whatever hold he thought he had over the South-South state.
