Nyesom Wike Says He’ll Forgive Fubara If He Apologizes Sincerely
FCT Minister Nyesom Wike says he’s willing to forgive suspended Rivers State Governor Sim Fubara, but only if Fubara takes responsibility and offers a sincere apology.
Wike, who has been at odds with Fubara since he became governor in 2023, made this known during a media chat in Abuja. Their feud led to a major political crisis in Rivers, splitting the state assembly into factions and raising security concerns.
As the tension worsened, President Bola Tinubu stepped in, suspending Fubara for six months, declaring a state of emergency, and appointing a sole administrator to stabilize the situation.
Speaking on efforts to restore peace, Wike said no genuine steps have been taken by those close to Fubara. He questioned the sincerity of those claiming to want peace but doing nothing meaningful about it.
“I’ve asked her to name one elder in Rivers State working closely with the governor who has actually tried to bring peace,” he said. “If nothing is done, we’ll end up back where we started. That doesn’t help anyone.”
He also revealed that once President Tinubu got involved, the impeachment notice from the state assembly was immediately withdrawn. For Wike, the door is still open — but only if Fubara is honest and willing to make peace.
A viral clip has made its way online showing a police officer in Delta State shooting a suspect who had already been restrained.
It can be noted that the suspect was pleading, claiming he had been framed and deceived, and said he would lead them to the right place.
However, while he was pleading, the police officer shot him. The officer later stated that the suspect was armed with a gun.
It was later revealed that the police officer has been arrested, as it is against the law to shoot a restrained suspect.
It was reported by the Kogi State Government that 24 children were abducted from an orphanage home. It was shared that this happened on the 26th of April, Sunday, and gunmen were seen in the area that day.
The information was shared by the Commissioner of Information, Kingsley Fanwo, who shared this sad news and described it as unfortunate.
“We condemn in strong terms the abduction of innocent children from an orphanage, the government is working closely with security operatives to ensure their safe return,”
Ghanaian media personality Afia Schwarzenegger speaks on the xenophobia issues occurring around Africans in South Africa.
She stated that Ghana is not the same as Nigeria and shared that if such issues happen to Ghanaians in South Africa, they will speak up and not keep quiet. She added that they will react.
“Ghana is not like Nigeria and we won’t hesitate to return the stupid favour.”
