Wike Labels Fubara’s Letter to Lawmakers as ‘Disrespectful and Useless’

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has criticised Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara for writing a letter to the state House of Assembly.

The letter, which sought a meeting with lawmakers about the Supreme Court’s ruling on the state’s political situation, was dismissed by Wike as “useless.”

Speaking to journalists in Abuja on Wednesday, Wike expressed disapproval of Fubara’s approach, stating that Speaker Martins Amaewhule and the lawmakers are not under the governor’s control and should be treated with respect.

Wike argued that instead of sending a public letter, Fubara should have contacted Amaewhule and his team directly by phone to arrange a meeting.
