Wike Embraces Peace, Says No More Crisis In Rivers State, Makes Up With Fubara

By Suleiman Anyalewechi 

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, on Tuesday, February 10, 2026, cautioned against any attempts to undermine or truncate the latest Presidential peace efforts on the festering leadership and political crisis in Rivers State.

The Source reports that, reports had  been rife concerning a peace meeting convened on Sunday February 8 at the Aso Rock Villa by President Bola Tinubu to  once again find a solution to the  continued rift between the camps of Governor Siminalayi Fubara and those of Wike his estranged godfather and the the state law makers.

Confirming the said trouble-shooting efforts, the FCT Minister on Tuesday, at an  interactive session with the media, warned that the latest peace moves, the second in the series, would be the last time the President will be intervening in the face- off  among the warring groups in Rivers state.

“The President has been very kind to the people of Rivers State . Each time there has been a semblance of problem between the Legislative and Executive Arms of Government, the President as father, has always stepped forward to resolve it .

“This is the second time Mr President is intervening, and I believe, by the grace of God, that this will be the last time he will be intervening. I have asked all the parties to obey Mr President, and I know that they will not hesitate to do so.

“And I hope also that the Governor will carry out his own part of the peace terms to make sure that this is the final time that Rivers people will hear this kind of disagreement” Wike stated .

The latest Presidential peace efforts, however, is coming on the heels of Wike’s belligerent posture towards Governor Fubara, with the  declaration, last weekend that the Governor is not needed in the process of mobilizing support for the second term ambition of President Tinubu.

At the formal inauguration of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors office in Port Harcourt, Wike also rained  curses on all those perceived to be supporting the Governor in betraying him.

Instructively, too, the FCT Minister did not give an inkling of the salient points of the presidential truce.

With the peace efforts though, what is obvious is that the impeachment process against Fubara has come to an end.
