Lagos, March 7, 2024 – Siminalaye Fubara, the Governor of Rivers State, says he is ready to resign so as to give peace a chance to reign in the state.
The governor expressed his intention on Thursday while speaking on AIT programme..
He said that the crisis between him and Nyesom Wike, his predecessor and current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), had persisted in spite of the intervention of President Tinubu.
“No sacrifice will be too big for me to pay for the success of this administration.
“The reason is very simple, it is not political love. It is not because I want to gain any favour from anybody. My interest and love for our dear state are genuine.”
Fubara said his concern was for the millions of Rivers people who had made sacrifices and whose hopes should not be dashed.
He stressed that he was willing to resign if that would bring peace and stability to the state. (GBN)
