Chief Edwin Clark, a prominent South-South leader, has thrown fuel on the fire of the political crisis plaguing Rivers State, declaring in a Thursday statement that former governor Nyesom Wike, now Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, “is not ready for peace.”
Clark’s scathing assertion comes amidst escalating tensions between Wike and his successor, Governor Siminayi Fubara. The two camps have been embroiled in a bitter war of words and accusations, raising concerns about potential instability in the oil-rich state.
He also accused Wike of orchestrating political turmoil through “continuous activities” that undermine peace efforts.
