Rivers State’s top clerics have jumped into the simmering issue between former Governor Nyesom Wike and his successor Sim Fubara in an attempt to resolve it.
Ambassador Desmond Akawor, State Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, said the apparent infighting between the governor and the minister would be handled shortly, describing the misunderstanding as a normal political phenomena between two individuals.
Akawor, who spoke when he met with members of the State Executive Committee and LGA party chairmen of the PDP at the party office in Port Harcourt, said some Bishops and other men of God in the state have waded into the crisis with a view to restoring peace between the two men. He disclosed that none of the actors were happy about the situation.
He said: “We may see the atmosphere in the state as disturbing. No, it is a normal thing in life. It is only what God has done that has perfection.
“There is crisis, but the important thing is the ability to solve the problem. This problem will be settled. The clergy is intervening. At the end of the day solution will come.”
