Rivers State governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has said his predecessor and FCT minister of the FCT, Nyesom Wike remains his oga (principal).
Fubara stated this in Port Harcourt at the rededication service of the 2023/2024 Legal Year of the Rivers State Judiciary that was equally attended by Wike on Thursday.
The moment Governor Fubara and Wike met at the rededication service of the 2023/2024 Legal Year at the Saint Cyprian’s Anglican Church in Port Harcourt.
It was the first time both politicians would be meeting in public since the political crisis that rocked Rivers State recently.
Fubara described the recent political crisis in the state as a thing of the past, calling again for peace in the oil-rich state.
“My oga remains my oga. Whatever that has happened is in the past. I have not sent anybody to malign anybody,” Fubara declared boldly.
He said that although it has been a trying time for the state, the current phase of political misunderstanding will pass and the promises his administration made to the people will be delivered.
Fubara also warned those pledging support for him to stop using abusive words on perceived opponents, saying that he did not authorise them to malign anybody.
According to him, “in trying to attain development, the devil will always attack, but that what is most important is to “identify the devil and push it out”.
Wike who is the FCT Minister arrived at the church service almost at the end and had a handshake with his successor before sitting on the same row with him while the service lasted.
