The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has stated that he is not in conflict with Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara.
Wike also distanced himself from the declaration of a state of emergency in Rivers State by President Bola Tinubu, saying he does not support such a move.
Speaking to journalists in Abuja on Monday, the former Rivers State governor suggested that Governor Fubara had allowed himself to be manipulated by political opponents seeking to undermine him.
He said: “I made it clear that this impunity will not stand, so what is happening in PDP is what I call undertakers because I see no reason why you will put yourself under that kind of crisis.
“I don’t have any crisis with him (Fubara). I’m not the President who declared a State of Emergency; if Mr President had called me, I wouldn’t have agreed to the State of Emergency.
“He knows when to lift, he has everything on his table, I don’t know. I have never supported it.
“But what I said was that the declaration of state of emergency was to save the governor because he was almost impeached.
“I don’t have crisis rather the governor, unknown to me, gave himself to be the tool for those who couldn’t fight me to fight me.”
