Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike, is talking tough on the crisis in Rivers State, insisting that his estranged associate, Governor Similayi Fubara, must obey the court rule on Saturday’s local government election.
In an interview on Cahannels Television on Tuesday, he claimed that disregarding court rulings could lead to chaos and the breakdown of law and order.
“I was a governor, I have always obeyed the rule of law. You heard the governor say that our state is turning into a state of anarchy where people do not obey the rule of law.
Wike also accused Fubara of publicly declaring on national television that he would not comply with a court judgment.
The minister also criticised his successor for his comments regarding the police providing security for the local government election in Rivers State.
