I Made a Mistake Supporting Fubara as a Governor, Please Forgive Me – Minister Wike

Minister Nyesom Wike of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) has publicly admitted to making a mistake in supporting Siminalayi Fubara as the governor of Rivers State. This admission comes amid a political rift between the two leaders. Wike expressed regret over his decision, stating that he is human and prone to making mistakes. He acknowledged that his choice was incorrect and assured the people that the mistake would be rectified at the appropriate time.

The Minister’s remarks were made during a function in Ogu/Bolo Local Government Area of Rivers State on Saturday. He apologized to the people of the state for his “mistake” and asked for their forgiveness.
