Wike: I wanted Fubara removed, Tinubu saved him by declaring emergency rule

Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyesom Wike, has revealed that President Bola Tinubu saved Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State on March 18 by declaring emergency rule.
Speaking during a media chat in Abuja on Friday,
Wike declared that his plan was for Fubara to be impeached.
However, he did not state the governor’s offence.
“As a politician, I am not happy about the state of emergency in Rivers State.
“I wanted the outright removal of Governor Fubara. The president, by declaring a state of emergency, saved Fubara.
“However, people must tell the truth. The governor was gone. He was gone, yes… so when people say the president did this, I say they should be praising him.
“Every morning, they should go to the president and ask, ‘can we wash your feet for saving us?’” he said.

Wike also questioned why Fubara has not reached out to him since his suspension.
“Has anybody taken it upon himself or herself to say, ‘this is where we are?’
“If I am the cause of the problem, has he ever called me as an elder to say what is the problem? Let us sit down and talk”.
