FCT, Abuja – Governor Siminalayi Fubara said “proper peace” has returned to Rivers state after months of political tension.
Governor Fubara said he is at peace with his political principal, the FCT minister, Nyesom Wike.
As reported by The Punch, Fubara stated this after meeting with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the Aso Rock Villa in Abuja, on Monday, September 22, 2025.
Fubara stressed that he had resumed his duties in an atmosphere of peace and cooperation.
“As far as I’m concerned, we have made peace. Fubara and his principal are working together.”
Although Fubara did not mention Wike’s name, with whom he has had a prolonged political feud.
Fubara explained that he visited Tinubu to seek direction following the expiration of the six-month emergency rule in the state.
“Ideally, it’s proper for me to see Mr President and to tell him that I’m back, and I’ve also resumed my responsibility as the governor of Rivers State.
“It’s not much. It’s a father-son discussion, telling him thank you, and the areas where, if at all, there should be any issue for him to guide me properly so we don’t be in any situation of crisis.”
