A political analyst, Ibrahim Modibo, has said the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, is overplaying his role in the politics of Rivers State.
Modibo made this statement during an interview on Arise Television on Friday.
According to him, the major problem in Rivers State is a power struggle between two individuals, and Wike plays a major role in it. He said there is no need for Wike to exercise excessive control over Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
The analyst described Wike as a very powerful and influential politician but said his actions often bring tension rather than peace in the political space.
Modibo noted that Wike is doing more than necessary, saying he is “dancing more than the drumbeat” and should settle down as a leader.
He added that although Wike is seen as a political godfather, he should remember that he also rose through the system and benefited from support in the past.
Modibo urged Wike to allow Governor Fubara to govern freely and deliver democracy to the people of Rivers State without pressure or control.
