Wike Admits Mistake in Assessing Governor Fubara, Seeks Forgiveness

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has publicly acknowledged his error in assessing Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State.

Wike expressed remorse and sought forgiveness from God and his political colleagues in Rivers State.

He pledged to rectify the mistake in due course and vowed to continue provoking his detractors, believing their reactions would reveal their own shortcomings.

Wike made these remarks during a civic reception for Chief George Thompson Sekibo, commemorating his 36 years of public service, held in Ogu-Bolo.

According to Wike: “I want to say this clearly: in life, we make mistakes.

“I have made a mistake. I own it up and I say God forgive me. I have said all of you forgive me. But we will correct it at the appropriate time.

“I am human. I am bound to make mistakes. So forgive me for making a wrong judgment. So nobody should kill.”

Wike also urged his supporters in the state assembly not to succumb to intimidation, saying: “Don’t be afraid. Nobody will remove you as lawmakers.

“Most of you don’t understand. This is our work. Our business is to make them to fear. That is what I am doing.

“We will make them to be angry every day and they will continue to make mistakes.”
