Wike: Tinubu Will Remind Fubara About The Danger Ahead – Fayose
Former Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has stated that the rift between the Governor of Rivers State and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, requires divine intervention.
Speaking during an appearance on Channels Television, he stated that the crisis requires fasting and prayers.
He advised Fubara to reconcile with Wike, adding that he hopes President Bola Tinubu will help the governor calm down.
The former governor blamed Fubara for the crisis, accusing him of failing to honour the agreements reached in Abuja.
Fayose said, “Many prayers would be said to save Fubara. So many fasts and prayers would be the only thing that would save Fubara in this one.
“My prayer is that God will enter his mind. The President will help calm him down, to remind the danger. One will be in his house before he realises (the danger).
Fubara and the Rivers State House of Assembly have been at loggerheads over the governor’s inability to present the 2026 budget.
The lawmakers have initiated impeachment proceedings against the governor, accusing him of spending the state’s funds without approval from the parliament.
Most of the Rivers lawmakers are loyal to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, who is campaigning against Fubara’s re-election.
Wike had accused Fubara of reneging on the peace agreement they both signed before President Bola Tinubu lifted the emergency rule in Rivers, paving the way for his return to office.
