Wike, Fubara Feud ‘Beyond Reconciliation’, Says Fayose
Former Ekiti governor, Ayodele Fayose, has declared that the ongoing feud between Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, (FCT) Nyesom Wike and the governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara, has escalated beyond reconciliation.
Speaking during an interview on Channels TV, Fayose described the situation as “very unfortunate”.
The ex-governor said his earlier advice to Fubara to “avoid Wike’s trouble” was in good faith.
He had offered this counsel shortly after Fubara’s electoral victory.
Reflecting on the deepening conflict, Fayose said: “The crisis has crossed the Rubicon. The matter has gone too far.
“Even if you want to resolve it, how do you restore the trust? I believe it’s too late for reconciliation.”

Speaking on Atiku, Fayose said Atiku, a former vice president, should end his presidential ambition due to his advanced age.
According to Fayose, “I am sure, at this stage, with all due respect to him, he (Atiku) would rather want to step away from the politics of contesting elections again.
“By the time Asiwaju finishes his term, Atiku Abubakar will probably be 80 or 81. So, what will be the attraction?
“We should leave the stage when the ovation is loudest. I respect him, and I think Nigerians are craving for a younger generation now more than ever before.
“So, on what basis will Atiku come and contest again?”
