Rivers: Why Fubara’s second coming should have made him better – Fayose

By Seyi Babalola

Former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose believes Siminalayi Fubara’s second coming as Governor of Rivers State, after the state of emergency ended, should have improved his performance.

In an interview with Channels Television’s ‘Politics Today’ on Friday, Fayose claimed he was dismissed as governor and went into exile, but he returned a better person.

Fayose stated that President Bola Tinubu, like everyone else, despises ungratefulness.

The former Ekiti governor also dismissed the claim that what is happening in Rivers state is politics taken too far.

According to him, the constitution provides rules of engagement for every politician, stressing that it is when one gets out of the rule that he begins to look for public sympathy.

“The coming back of Governor Fubara should have  made him a better person.If you made a mistake the first time, the second time you are not supposed to go through that route.

“Politics is a power game. Nobody solves political game for you. With due respect, let me tell you. Fubara is the one enjoying the office of the governor of Rivers state. It’s not the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike.

“Some people are saying it’s about Tinubu’s election. No! Because Tinubu’s election will come first, don’t forget that. Both Wike and Fubara will all work for Tinubu. Two weeks after, there will be an election for Rivers state,” he said.
