Nobody Has Monopoly Of Causing Violence, Wike Warns Fubara, Supporters

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has said that nobody has the exclusive right to incite violence in a warning to his predecessor, Sim Fubara and the governor’s supporters amid the political conflict between the pair.

The minister made the remark in Port Harcourt at the Rivers State Ijaw People’s Congress event that was conducted in his honour.

Wike disagreed with the view that Fubara spoke for the Ijaw people as a whole even as they struggle for supremacy in the state.

“So, all these people going to television to say Ijaw people are fighting me. Ask them, all the Ijaw people in the House of Assembly were positioned.

“Who has Fubara made? All the things you see are people who are envious of our growth. They couldn’t do what we are doing today. These are people who we have defeated politically severally. If the opportunity comes again, we will defeat them again.

“I have made an Ijaw man governor of Rivers State. God used us. All of us here had sleepless nights. So who loves Ijaw more? Is it people who come out on television who cannot even make their Ijaw brother governor If they were that powerful?

“Since the old Rivers State, has Ijaw ever become governor? Where are they?”

“I have told people that nobody has a monopoly of causing violence. The mere fact is that we choose to play according to the rule of law, to be calm and not to turn ourselves into where investors would run away, and that is what we will continue to do.”
