Port Harcourt, Rivers – Nyesom Wike, the minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), in a veiled message to Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers, bragged that he and his team would be undefeatable in the 2027 election.

The immediate past governor of Rivers state said the alliance his camp has built would make the 2027 election a walk in the park for him and members of his camp.

The minister expressed his readiness for the next general election at a thanksgiving service by Senator Barinada Mpigi in Koroma of Tai local government area of Rivers state on Sunday, February 18, Channels Television reported.

Wike’s statement reads in part:

“With the forces we have, I don’t know of anybody who can challenge us. I can tell you it is like tomorrow is 2027. For me, it is still very far. I can’t wait. The two leaderships of the party, APC is here, and PDP; where can you find that leadership unity? Which state? It is only in Rivers that you can find that unity.”

Has Wike and Fubara ended their feud?

The former governor added that many people did not like the political alliance he and the opposition had formed in the state and tried to come within them, adding that “we have refused to be divided.”

Recall that Wike had anointed and worked for Fubara to succeed him as state governor. However, barely six months after Fubara got into office, he fell apart with his known political godfather, and the duo has been on each other’s neck since then.
