Minister of the Federal Capital Territory FCT, Nyesom Wike, has declared that Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara committed no wrongdoing by reconciling with his political camp, insisting the governor had no other option than to return to the political family that produced him.
Speaking with journalists on Tuesday after inspecting some ongoing road projects across the territory, Wike dismissed suggestions that Fubara’s return amounted to forgiveness after years of political disagreement.
He said, “I don’t know what you mean by sin. In politics, there is no sin. If someone realises they made a mistake and decides to correct it, there is nothing wrong with that. Politics is not a sin. What matters is recognising that you were on the wrong path and making the right decision.”
The minister recalled that he had predicted the reconciliation well before Fubara made it public. “I said during my last media chat that he had no other choice but to return to the same political family that produced him. I have now been informed that he has made that declaration publicly, and we welcome him. Our doors are open. Everyone is welcome for us to work together. There is no better alternative. We will all work together to move the state forward,” he said.
