Minister of the Federal Capital Territory and former Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, on Thursday night confirmed that the political rift between him and Governor Siminalayi Fubara has been resolved following a peace meeting brokered by President Bola Tinubu in Abuja.
Speaking to journalists after the closed-door meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, Wike said both camps had reached a final agreement to end hostilities and work in unity.
“We have all agreed to work together with the governor, and the governor also agreed to work together with all of us. We are members of the same political family,” Wike said.
He acknowledged that the crisis had lingered for months but described the Thursday agreement as conclusive.
