My Oga, No Need To Destroy Rivers State – Fubara Tells Wike

The Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara has appealed to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, whom he referred to as ‘Oga’ not to destroy his state.

Fubara while speaking on Channels TV, on Monday said the election periods are over and it’s time for governance. He urged the FCT minister to give peace a chance.

He noted that Wike can decide to fight when it comes to election period.

Fubara said, “What I am appealing is: everyone should sheathe their swords. Even to the minister, my oga (my boss), there is no need to destroy this state.

“He (Wike) once ruled this state and the state was an envy of every other state. Another person is there now, what we need now is the support, after four years or eight years, who knows? I will also leave and someone else will take over. That should be the spirit.

“When it comes to the election period, you can fight and do whatever but now is the time for governance. We need all the support.”

The crisis in Rivers State reached a height on Monday when political thugs burnt some local government secretariats in the state.
