The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has said his political career would be destroyed if Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, secures a second term in office.
Wike made the remarks on Saturday while addressing stakeholders at a meeting held in Okrika Local Government Area of Rivers State.
He stated that a firm political decision had already been taken regarding the 2027 elections, stressing that supporting Fubara again would amount to a costly mistake.
“We have made a decision as far as Tinubu is concerned. The other one [Fubara] — no way. Because if we make another mistake, then we will go and bury ourselves politically. I will not allow myself to be buried. I will not allow that mistake again,” he said.
Wike further emphasized that the decision was final and should be clearly understood by all stakeholders.
“So everybody should know we have made a decision,” he added.
His comments come amid ongoing political tensions in Rivers State following the fallout between the former governor and his successor.
