The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike has justified his rift with Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State.
While justifying his rift with the Governor in Abuja with newsmen, Wike said it is politics if he demands N20 billion monthly and is allowed to award all the contracts to himself.
He wondered where Fubara was when he was fighting.
The minister vowed to remain politically relevant and maintain his structure.
He said, “If I Demand N20 billion every month and even award all the contracts to myself, that’s politics. Where was he when I was fighting?
“I have to be politically relevant and I must maintain my political structure. I can’t allow anybody to cut me out immediately.
“If you like accuse me all you like, I won’t have a sleepless night because the right thing must be done.”
The rift between Wike and Fubara led to attempts by some members of the state assembly to impeach the governor.
The governor, however, resisted the attempts.
