Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike declared last night that he had no apologies to offer any one for threatening to put fire in any Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) controlled state undermining his position in the party.
Wike, speaking on Channels Television, also vowed that nothing would ever make him support his estranged political godson and successor as Rivers State governor, Siminalayi Fubara, again.
Wike and Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State have been at parallel end over the political control and structure of the state.
Amid the lingering battle, the PDP governors forum had backed Fubara against the minister.
Angered by their remark and position, Wike had threatened to put fire in the state of any governor who interfered in the political crisis in Rivers State.
However, featuring on Channels TV Politics Today, Wike said: “I said it to the governors forum and I repeat without any apologies to anybody anywhere. Heaven will never fall, in fact; if heaven falls there will be peace.
“You mean as I sit as FCT Minister from Rivers State, the only person I can say I have no relationship with is the governor of Zamfara, I don’t know him; if I see him now I won’t know him.
“I know all other governors and they know me and we have a relationship. You mean you want to violate the processes and constitution of our party.
“After your meeting, you came out on national television as chairman of the forum to read a communique that their brother in Rivers state – whether legal or not – and I’m sitting as FCT Minister from that state listening, and you expect me to fold my arms because you are a governor?
“You look at me and tell me that? Expecting me to fold my hand for everything to be well?”
