WIKE VS Fubara: Tinubu Threatened That There Would Be Consequences – Ex- Rivers Commissioner Makes Revelations
A Former Commissioner for Water Resources in Rivers State, David Briggs, has alleged that President Bola Tinubu subtly threatened the Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara into signing the peace deal with his predecessor, Nyesom Wike at the presidential villa, Abuja on Monday.
Briggs said Governor Fubara signed the resolution under duress following alleged indirect threats issued by President Tinubu before handing the Governor the document to sign.
The Former Commissioner said he was at the villa with other Rivers elders who were equally invited, hence he witnessed first-hand what transpired at the venue.
He said President Tinubu threatened that there would be consequences, should Governor Fubara refuse to endorse and abide by the document which he described as a “presidential proclamation”.

Briggs said, “I was there, so I’m a witness and what I say is primary, not secondary. We were invited to a meeting but that was not a meeting, what happened is that Mr. President walked in with a written resolution, addressed us declared that what he had in his hand was a presidential proclamation, and emphasized the fact that he was the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and anybody who dares to say no to what he is saying would face the consequences.
“That, in a simple layman’s word is called a threat. Let’s get it very clear, if you are in the position of the Governor, what would you do, will you get up and go and say no to Mr President with that kind of subtle but energetic threat?
The Former Commissioner disclosed that most Rivers people who were present at the meeting including Adokiye Amaesimaka were shocked at the President’s attitude and decided to ask questions.
Recall Governor Fubara and Wike the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), have been at loggerheads over control of the state’s political structure since October.
A development gave rise to President Tinubu’s intervention on Monday, where all parties agreed to an eight-point resolution signed by Fubara, Wike, and other Rivers stakeholders.
