Siminalayi Fubara, the governor of Rivers State, has begged with his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, to remain close to him even if he switches sides politically.
At Wike’s private property on Ada-George Road on Sunday, Fubara gave this speech during a Thanksgiving reception.
Please stay close to me because I know that the tigers and sharks are truly out there waiting for something to hurt, even though we are seeing indicators that it seems like you want to cross over to the other side and everyone is hoping that for you.
Fubara explained, “So, for the sake of this state, being around would continue to direct and put my head right.
His appeal comes amid speculation that Wike would defect from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and join the governing All Progressives Congress (APC).
In place of Atiku Abubakar, the preferred candidate of his party, Wike opted to back Bola Tinubu of the APC, who was ultimately declared the winner of the 2023 presidential election.
