According to Wike : 'Obeying the rule of law is the only thing that can bring peace and it's up to Fubara .
'Who is fighting him? Have you forgotten that from 2015 to 2023 I had a squabble with the Federal Government? Nobody is fighting you, the Federal Government is not fighting you. 'There will be peace when Fubara obeys the rule of law, there is peace when you obey court judgement and Wike too will obey court judgement and allow the rule of law to prevail.
