The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike on Friday said he has no apology for threatening \u201cfire\u201d in the states of governors that interfere in the crisis in Rivers State.<\/p>\n
Wike and Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State have been at parallel end over the political control and structure of the state.<\/p>\n
Amid the lingering battle, the PDP governors forum had backed Fubara against the minister.<\/p>\n
Angered by their remark and position, Wike had threatened to put fire in the state of any governor who interfered in the political crisis in Rivers State.<\/p>\n
However, featuring on Channels TV Politics Today, Wike said: \u201cI said it to the governors forum and I repeat without any apologies to anybody anywhere. Heaven will never fall, in fact; if heaven falls there will be peace.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou mean as I sit as FCT Minister from Rivers State, the only person I can say I have no relationship with is the governor of Zamfara, I don\u2019t know him; if I see him now I won\u2019t know him.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know all other governors and they know me and we have a relationship. You mean you want to violate the processes and constitution of our party.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter your meeting, you came out on national television as chairman of the forum to read a communique that their brother in Rivers state \u2013 whether legal or not \u2013 and I\u2019m sitting as FCT Minister from that state listening, and you expect me to fold my arms because you are a governor?<\/p>\n
\u201cYou look at me and tell me that? Expecting me to fold my hand for everything to be well?\u201d<\/p>\n
