The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has vowed never to make peace with the Rivers State Governor, Siminilayi Fubara, whom he described as a traitor.
Wike, who spoke in a live media chat on Sunday in Abuja, ruled out reconciliation with Fubara despite efforts by political leaders in the state to broker a truce in the ongoing political conflict between them.
He criticised Fubara for failing to adhere to directives issued by President Bola Tinubu during a peace meeting aimed at resolving their differences.
The former Rivers governor insisted that his estranged godson had betrayed him and there was no way he could make peace with him.
He said: “I’m wondering, what conflict to resolve? Mr. President, in his wisdom, called all parties. He said withdraw the impeachment notice, you go and do this, you go and do that, but they never returned to him.
“The Assembly withdrew the impeachment notice; you did one and two, and then you sent people to go to court. Elder, have you gone back to Mr President to tell him we can’t do three and four? Nothing.
“I have never seen this in my life — for a president to call parties, and one party goes back and says it’s political. Who does that?”
