The war between Sim Fubara, the Governor of Rivers state and his presumed political godfather, Nyesom Wike is just getting started with the recent interview Wike granted.
Nyesom Wike, has accused Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, of orchestrating the burning of a section of the State House Assembly complex.
Wike claimed that Fubara took this step after learning about an impeachment attempt against him (Governor Fubara).
When questioned about whether he endorsed Fubara’s impeachment, Wike responded, “If they are impeaching you (Fubara), did you call me?
“Assuming I’m the one who plotted it (for example), did you say, sir, ‘They want to impeach me’? Is that why you will send people to go and burn the hallowed chambers?” he asked.
The former governor of Rivers also raised concerns about “ethnic politics” in the oil-rich state, noting that such a situation had not been experienced before.
“Is impeachment done one day? Is it a one-day affair? Then, you raised ethnic politics. We have never had it like this before,” Wike, who is Fubara’s immediate predecessor, added.
The fire incident at the Rivers State House of Assembly Complex occurred on October 29 amid speculations about an impeachment procedure against Governor Fubara.

Wike and Fubara, members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), were reportedly in a feud before the alleged impeachment plot. Following the development, the duo was seen at a public event.
President Bola Tinubu had met with and reconciled them following the impasse. Fubara then likened the feud to a father-and-son matter.
“For our dear state, I know everybody is wondering what’s going on, what’s not going on. We are okay, there is no problem,” Fubara said when the Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, led a military delegation to the Government House in Port Harcourt, the state capital.
“If we have an internal issue, it will be resolved and everything will go back to normal. There is nothing wrong if a father and a son have a problem. If there is any problem, but I don’t think there is anything, whatever it is, we will definitely resolve the issue.”
