Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Ijaw National Congress Worldwide has urged Rivers State\u2019s immediate past governor, Nyesom Wike, to make peace with Governor Siminialayi Fubara for peace and prosperity.<\/p>\n

The group, which expressed its discontent with the state\u2019s political problems, particularly between Fubara and his predecessor, stated that it would always be on the side of truth and good administration.<\/p>\n

This was said in a statement released by the group\u2019s President, Prof Benjamin Okaba, and made available to newsmen in Akure, Ondo State, on Sunday.<\/p>\n

In the statement, the group commended the people of Rivers State for standing up to the alleged planned impeachment of Fubara and encouraged Wike not to destabilize the state\u2019s existing administration.<\/p>\n

The statement read, \u201cWe urgently call on all political players in Rivers State to play their duty to their constituents and forthwith cease from any further acts capable of slurring the sanctity of the office, institution, and person of the Governor of all Rivers people.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe specifically appeal to Chief Nyesom Wike, to retrace his steps from stoking division of any sort against the government of the day under the guise of protecting his \u2018structure\u2019. The political structure to which he refers should not be rolled up with the structure of the government of Governor Fubara as one entity under anyone\u2019s thumb.\u201d<\/p>\n
