Rivers: Fubara has breached agreement brokered by Tinubu – Wike alleges

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has alleged that Governor Siminalayi Fubara has reneged on an agreement brokered by President Bola Tinubu to resolve the political crisis in the state.

Wike made this disclosure on Wednesday during a thank-you visit to the people of Tai Local Government Area of Rivers State.

He, therefore, vowed to make public the details of the deal reached before the President very soon.

Recall that the agreement followed a closed-door meeting convened by Tinubu at the State House in Abuja in June 2025, involving Wike and Fubara, as part of efforts to end the prolonged power struggle that plunged Rivers into a political crisis, leading to a state of emergency and the suspension of the governor and members of the State House of Assembly.

According to Wike, the the governor had failed to honour parts of what was agreed.

“After agreeing on something, you renege. And you think you are a smart politician? You are clever by half.

“Very soon, we will let Rivers people know what we agreed before Mr President. This agreement was not done anywhere; before Mr President. If you can renege on what we agreed before, Mr President, then who are we,” he asked.
