There’s Nothing Wrong With Father And Son Having Problems — Rivers Governor Fubara Speaks On Rift With Wike

There’s Nothing Wrong With Father And Son Having Problems -- Rivers Governor Fubara Speaks On Rift With Wike

Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara has played down the report of a total break down of rapport with his predecessor and godfather, Nyesom Wike.

The governor on Wednesday when Christopher Musa, chief of defence staff, led a military delegation to visit him at the government house in Port Harcourt, said there is “nothing wrong if a father and a son have a problem”.

In his words:

“For our dear state, I know everybody is wondering what’s going on, what’s not going on. We are okay, there is no problem,” Fubara said.

“If we have an internal issue, it will be resolved and everything will go back to normal.

“There is nothing wrong if a father and a son have a problem. If there is any problem — but I don’t think there is anything. Whatever it is, we will definitely resolve the issue.”

It would be recalled that political tension heightened on Monday in Rivers state when some lawmakers in the house of assembly moved to
impeach Fubara.

Ehie Edison, loyal to Fubara was removed as the leader of the state assembly but hours later, he was elected as the new speaker .

The crisis came in the wake of a rift between Fubara and Wike.

Wike and Fubara later met at the presidential villa with Bauchi governor Bala Mohammed saying that President Bola Tinubu has intervened in the crisis, expressing optimism that peace will be restored in the state.

The PDP on its part called on all actors in the state to “sheathe their swords and allow for a peaceful and amicable resolution of all the issues”.
