Tinubu has intervened in Rivers crisis – Bauchi gov

Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State on Tuesday disclosed that President Bola Tinubu has intervened in the rift between the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike and Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara.




Mohammed disclosed that Tinubu doused the political tension in Rivers State.




He stated this while briefing State House Correspondents after a meeting of the National Police Council presided over by Tinubu at the Council Chambers of the Presidential Villa, Abuja.




Mohammed said Tinubu is discussing with Wike and Fubara, adding that it appeared there would be peace with his intervention.




According to Mohammed: “President Tinubu has shown that he is President for PDP and APC. We are going to work with him.”




Fubara and Wike met at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Tuesday morning.




The duo reportedly fell out less than six months after the succession.




Wike’s loyalists in the Rivers House of Assembly had moved to impeach Fubara but the governor resisted.
