‘Don’t beg for peace and sponsor people to insult President’s wife’ – Wike tells Fubara

Published on May 03, 2025 at 01:27 PM

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike, has advised the suspended Governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara, to bold enough to tell President Bola Tinubu what exactly he wants.

This was contained in a statement by the minister’s Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media, Lere Olayinka, on Saturday.

According to the minister, it is not enough to be visiting people to plead for peace, adding that those who genuinely want peace work and act for it.

Wike said the governor and his supporters are the same people pleading for peace, but at the same time doing things that are contrary to what they are pleading for.

“How can you say you want peace and at the same time, you are sponsoring people to insult everyone, including the President and his wife?

“All those shenanigans won’t bring peace, and I am sure they know that, because they are not sincere with their up and down pleadings for peace.

“As for me and those who subscribe to my leadership, we condemn in totality that yesterday’s show of shame and we apologise to our First Lady for the embarrassing conduct of those few women who do not represent the characters and ideals of the people of Rivers State,”; he said.

DAILY POST reports that Wike’s advice came after some Rivers women reportedly walked out on Tinubu’s wife at an event in Port Harcourt on Friday.
