Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State, has urged the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike to allow him govern the state.

Wike and Fubara have been at loggerheads since he assumed office over the control of Rivers State political structure.

Amid their rift, Fubara conducted local government election without the presence of Police officers over the weekend.

Featuring on Channels TV Politics Today, Fubara said: “My appeal is that everyone should shield their sword. Even to the minister, my oga, there is no need to destroy things. He (Wike) once ruled and the state was the envy of every other state.

“Another person is there now, what he needs is to give his support. After four years or who knows eight years I will also leave and another person will take over. That should be the spirit.

“When the election comes, you can fight and do whatever. But now is time for governance. We need all the support.

“We are complaining that Nigeria’s oil production is low and we are trying to improve our production stage. We have the problems in Emohua and Degema, we are trying to manage it and we are now adding in-house issues. This is an in-house issue that ought not to be out.”
