In a recent tweet from his verified account, former Nigerian senator Shehu Sani addressed the ongoing political rift between former Governor Nyesom Wike and the current Governor Siminalayi Fubara in Rivers State.
Sani's succinct yet profound statement, "Rivers State has been left in the hands of God to solve the problem," encapsulates the growing concern over the escalating tensions in the state.
The rift between Wike and Fubara, once political allies, has become a significant issue, with various factions within the state's political landscape taking sides. The conflict has resulted in a series of public disputes, administrative disruptions, and a palpable sense of uncertainty among the citizens of Rivers State.
Sani's comment reflects the frustration and helplessness felt by many observers and residents alike. The political impasse has made it difficult for the state government to function effectively, with governance and development efforts being overshadowed by the ongoing feud.
The former senator's statement emphasizes the need for a peaceful resolution to the crisis. Many believe that the intervention of impartial mediators and the commitment of both Wike and Fubara to dialogue and reconciliation are crucial steps toward restoring stability in Rivers State.
