Don’t Get Involved In Any Fight Between 2 Politicians Without Knowing The Real Cause Of The Quarrel – Wike Warns

“Don’t get involved in any fight between 2 politicians without knowing the real cause of the quarrel,” Wike said.

“In any facet of life, there are rules and they must be obeyed. As a pastor, there are rules you must follow, so also as politicians, we must follow rules. While I was governor I followed those rules, and that’s why I was able to succeed.”

Going on, the minister appeared to criticise the Rivers Elders position saying, “When I was running for governor, I was invited that some elders want to see me, when I got there I saw only 2 people. Just 2 of them constituted themselves as elders over the whole state. Now they’ve come back again as elders, don’t mind them.”

The minister also went on to question the agitation, saying those making it an Ijaw thing were ill-informed.

“When we wanted to go for it we were not shouting asawana, now they’re carrying flags and shouting asawana up and down. Are you people aware that Mr President actually called us privately and told us what to do, he didn’t do it and now Mr President then said okay, the larger house should come and they’re saying he does not have the constitutional right to do that.”

In attendance were some of the 27 lawmakers believed to be loyal to Wike, along with some recently resigned commissioners.

Over the past three months, Rivers State has witnessed a tumultuous situation, with the state House of Assembly becoming a battleground. The conflict between the current governor, Siminalayi Fubara, and his predecessor, Wike, has led to a division among lawmakers, as 27 of them defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), a party in which Wike currently serves as a minister in the central government.

This discord resulted in parallel legislative sessions, an attempted impeachment of the governor, the demolition of the Assembly complex, and a series of resignations by pro-Wike commissioners in Fubara’s cabinet.

On Monday, December 18, the President met with both Fubara and Wike at the Aso Villa in Abuja.
