According to Comrade Austin Okai, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), the conflict between Siminalayi Fubara, the governor of Rivers State, and Nyesom Wike, the minister of the Federal Capital Territory, may engulf the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
According to reports, Wike and Fubara recently rekindled their confrontation after the Minister promised to thwart the governor’s attempt to win reelection.
However, some senior APC figures support Fubara, who is now a member of the ruling party.
However, Wike advised the party veteran to avoid Rivers State politics, which sparked a verbal spat between him and the ruling party’s national leadership.
In an interview with TVC News on Tuesday, Okai projected that the issue would spread to other regions of the nation.
“Wike attacked the NSA and all of them, not just the APC National Secretary,” he stated. Rivers State is typically where the ruling party crisis begins for more than ten years.
“Unless the president muster political courage and summon the FCT Minister to order, what you witness in Rivers will destroy the APC.” We don’t know the deal between him and the president, but he has stated that Rivers State is essential to his political survival.
“Wike is speaking harsher to the President than the Chief of Staff, NSA, and National Chairman of the APC. Wike speaks more than the president does.
