Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has sad that he and former governor and FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, have fully settled their political differences.
According to the governor, the settlement between him and Wike was crucial to lasting peace in the state.
In a statewide broadcast on Friday, Fubara said the six-month emergency rule imposed by President Bola Tinubu had been challenging but ultimately allowed all parties to reconcile.“
He said: “In the course of the six-month period, Mr. President graciously brokered the peace process with all the parties successfully. Our Leader, His Excellency, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, CON, all members of the Rivers State House of Assembly and I, as your Governor, have all accepted to bury the hatchet and embrace peace and reconciliation in the best interest of our dear Rivers State”.
The governor’s return follows the lifting of a six-month emergency rule imposed by President Bola Tinubu in March 2025, which saw Fubara, his deputy, and the Rivers State House of Assembly suspended amid a political and legislative crisis.
