Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State and his predecessor, Governor Nyesom Wike, will resolve their differences, according to Catholic Bishop Matthew Hassan Kukah of the Sokoto Diocese.
The conflict between Governor Fubara and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Wike, took on new dimensions on Wednesday following the resignation of five commissioners who supported Wike from Fubara’s cabinet.
Speaking to journalists on Wednesday, May 15, Kukah said Nigerians always cried more than the bereaved.
“We ordinary people cry more than the bereaved.
“The important thing is politicians will fix their problems.
“Rivers State is a place that is very dear to me because I have been associated with them for a very long period of time.
“But look, when politicians fight, don’t get carried away because they have their capacity to fix their quarrel.
“And I hope and pray that Rivers State will sooner rather than later reposition because it is not an insignificant part of Nigeria,” Kukah prayed.
