Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Rivers State governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has called on his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, to allow peace to reign in the state.<\/p>\n

Fubara gave this charge on Channels Television\u2019s Politics Today programme on Monday.<\/p>\n

He said he does not regret conducting the local government election in the state last Saturday despite the resistance by Wike\u2019s men in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and the All Progressives Congress, APC.<\/p>\n

The governor said he had all the guts to do these things, asking his predecessor to let go of whatever hold he thought he had over the South-South state.<\/p>\n

Fubara said he had kept all understanding he had with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory to ensure peace in Rivers State.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is nothing I have not done on this earth for peace to reign. I can tell you the number of times I have knelt down to beg that let\u2019s allow this issue to go. I have done everything,\u201d Fubara said.<\/p>\n

On what he would tell Wike if they meet, Fubara said: \u201cI\u2019ll tell him (Wike) that it has gotten to a point where he needs to let go. We need peace in this state.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t necessarily need to win all the fights; at times, you just let go for the sake of the good people of Rivers State and the love that you have always profess for the state. We need to secure the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cFubara will leave tomorrow. Who knows who is going to come? It might be through him or through another person but we need to secure the state.\u201d<\/p>\n
