Nyesom Wike, minister of the federal capital territory (FCT), says he will not again support Siminalayi Fubara, governor of Rivers.

Wike spoke on Friday during an interview on Channels Television.

“I will never support Fubara again in my political life. I won’t do that. Everyone knows me,” he said.

Wike said he laboured and sacrificed for Fubara to become Rivers governor in 2023.

He added that the governor could not have won the election in the state without his support.

The FCT minister accused Fubara of telling lies against him after he was elected as governor.

“I will never support Fubara again in my political life. I won’t do that. Everyone knows me,” Wike said.

Due to the rift, the state house assembly is polarised into two factions.

The faction led by Martin Amaewhule with 27 members is loyal to Wike, while Victor Jumbo’s faction is loyal to Fubara.

The two factions are in court to determine the authentic house of assembly.

Fubara recognises the Jumbo-led faction, and the state government interacts with the group, which has three lawmakers, for legislative approvals.
