It’s worth noting that a crisis unfolded in Rivers State on Monday, October 30, following an attempt by the Rivers State Assembly to impeach the incumbent Governor, Siminalayi Fubara.

In his address to the PDP governors, Wike emphasized that he would not be influenced by such actions, clarifying that impeachment proceedings are a provision within the country’s Constitution and not equivalent to a military coup.

Furthermore, he dismissed rumors of any interest in funds belonging to Rivers state, asserting that nobody could dismantle the established political structure in the state.

He said: “Nobody can intimidate me. If I want to do something, I will do it. Impeachment is not a military coup; it is provided under the Constitution. I’m not interested in all the rumours, money, this, and that. Rubbish. Absolute rubbish. I just left office how many months ago? And I’m FCT Minister, so which money?

“But nobody can take away our political structure. No one. You cannot work and people will begin to bring enemies, those who fought you when you were struggling for the person to be in office. Nobody does that. I’m not a political ingrate, but don’t touch the political structure of the state. I will not shut my eyes.”

Wike also appreciated the Governor’s Forum for the courtesy visit and appreciated President Bola Tinubu for the privilege to serve as FCT Minister, while reiterating his support for the President’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

Earlier, the chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum, thanked Wike for his willingness to resolve issues, noting that the Forum had “waded into the matter”, which showed the importance of Rivers State.

He also commended the President for his appointment of Wike as FCT Minister, noting that his antecedents spoke volumes about his ability to lead.
