Wike vs Fubara: Why There’ll Be No Reconciliation – Fayose

A Former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose has disclosed that there will be no reconciliation to the feud between the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike and his successor, Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State.

Fayose, an ally of former Rivers Governor, Wike, said it was already too late to call for reconciliation, insisting that the matter has gone too far.

Fayose said there was a breach of trust between the two politicians, which according to him, would not be easy to restore.

“This crisis is unfortunate, very, very unfortunate.

”I believe that the matter has crossed the Rubicon,” he said on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.

“It has gone far. Breach of trust even if you want to resolve this matter, where do you put the trust part? I rather want to believe that it is too far in the day to call for reconciliation,” he stated.

Recall that Wike and Fubara, who succeeded him as Rivers Governor, have been at loggerheads since the latter assumed office in 2023.

In a recent interview, the FCT Minister said the restoration of peace in Rivers State is up to Fubara.

Despite Presidential Bola Tinubu’s intervention, the rift between the duo had continued unabated and escalated during the recent local government elections in the state.
