Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has confirmed that suspended Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara is attempting to reconcile and had visited him, accompanied by two other governors.
Wike, the former Rivers State governor, made this statement on Monday in response to reports of Fubara’s visit.

“The President has called for peace severally and I cannot sit down when the President has called for peace and I say, ‘I don’t want peace’,” Wike said during a media parley with select journalists in Abuja.
“Yes, he came with two governors and one elder person. Unfortunately, the two governors are APC governors. So, I will not pursue him. He said he wants peace. That’s fine. I also want peace.”
“I told him, ‘Look, I don’t think you have the capacity to really make this peace.’ That’s why when I read what I read yesterday, I felt so bad. Why? If you are making peace, your people are demonstrating every day; if you are making peace, your people are busy on television insulting people. How do you feel in that case?”
“You must take steps. Have you met the assembly people? There are leaders you should meet. It is not to say, ‘I want peace.’ You must show it by conduct and action,” the former governor said.
Wike alleged that Fubara was misled by certain governors, which contributed to the escalation of the crisis.
“Governors came pushing him, where are they now? I think the governors are enjoying their own,” the former governor said.
“Fubara is a young man, I warned him saying, look, go this way, go this way and you will not have problems.”
