The federal government says it is not involved in the ongoing political crisis in Rivers state.
The minister of information and national orientation, Mohammed Idris disclosed this in a statement on Wednesady.
He said though Nyesom Wike, minister of the federal capital territory (FCT), is involved in the crisis, the government remains neutral in the matter.
“Well, he is a federal cabinet member; he is involved in the situation in the state. That cannot be a federal government position,” he said.
“The federal government is always interested in the well-being of all the states, and in that direction, the federal government will always align with everyone in Nigeria to make sure that there is peace and tranquillity in all parts of this country,” he added.
