Peter Odili, former governor of Rivers State, praises Governor Siminalayi Fubara for his strength in resisting what he perceives as an attempt by former governor Nyesom Wike to control the state. Odili celebrates Fubara's leadership at a Christmas event, acknowledging his ability to overcome a political crisis.
An erstwhile Governor of Rivers State , Peter Odili , says Governor Siminilayi Fubara courageously stopped the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike , from making the state his private estate. The ex-governor disclosed that Governor Fubara summoned an unusual fortitude to confront the quest by Wike to capture Rivers State through ferocious but unnecessary political war.
