I’ll soon reveal details of peace agreement with Fubara, says Wike

Nyesom Wike, minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), says he will soon reveal the details of the peace agreement reached between him and Siminalayi Fubara, governor of Rivers.

Wike spoke on Wednesday during a meeting with stakeholders in Tai LGA of the state.

In June, President Bola Tinubu brokered a peace deal between Wike and Fubara, ending the prolonged political crisis in the state.

“Very soon, we will let the people of Rivers state know what we agreed on before Mr President,” Wike said.

The minister, who accused Fubara of reneging on the peace deal, advised the people of Tai to avoid entering into agreements with promise-breakers.

Wike has been criticising Fubara since his defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) earlier this month.

The FCT minister reportedly moved against Fubara’s defection, as the PDP structure in Rivers, which he once controlled, has now aligned with the APC.

On Tuesday, Wike said the leadership mistake in Rivers will be corrected in 2027.

The FCT minister, in a veiled reference to Fubara, said leaders are meant to serve the people’s will rather than pursue personal interests.

“We will not make the same mistake again at the state level in 2027, but we will talk about it later when the time comes. Just follow your leaders. Anywhere you see them going, that is where we are going,” he said.(The Cable)
