I Won’t Disclose Details Of Peace Deal With Fubara – Wike

The former Rivers governor said that rather than disclose details of the peace deal, he would instead allow people to speculate.

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has declared that he won’t disclose details of the recent truce brokered between him and suspended Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, saying that the most important thing is that peace has returned to the state.

Wike stated this on Thursday during a media chat at his residence in Abuja. He said that rather than disclose details of the peace deal, he would instead allow people to speculate.

“I will allow you to speculate, it’s not my business. All I know is that peace has come,” Wike said.

“If you are not satisfied with that, there is nothing we can do. What is important is that peace has returned, whatever thing anybody says is not my business.”

He stated that some individuals had turned the crisis in Rivers State into a lucrative venture, using it to illegally enrich themselves for selfish purposes.

He added that these people are now displeased with his reconciliation with the suspended Governor of the state, Siminalayi Fubara.

Last month, Tinubu hosted a conciliatory meeting between Wike, Fubara and the suspended members of the Rivers State House of Assembly, signaling a return to peace in the state.

The President suspended Fubara, his deputy, Ngozi Odu, and members of the Rivers Assembly in March 2025, after a heated and long-drawn political impasse in the oil-producing state.

There was a fallout between Wike and Fubara, his political godson, over the control of structures in the state. The situation deteriorated as the lawmakers loyal to the FCT minister – led by Martin Amaewhule – attempted to impeach Fubara.

Tinubu had immediately, after suspending the lawmakers, Fubara and his deputy, appointed and sworn in a retired naval chief, Vice Admiral Ibok-ete Ibas (rtd), as the sole administrator of the state.
