President Bola Tinubu has successfully brokered a truce between FCT Minister Nyesom Wike and suspended Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara, bringing an end to their prolonged political crisis.
The closed-door meeting, held at the Presidential Villa, resulted in a peace framework aimed at stabilizing Rivers State.
According to sources, Wike and Fubara agreed to put aside their differences and work together for the state’s development. The meeting, described as tense but constructive, emphasized unity and cooperation among the parties involved.
The truce may also pave the way for the potential lifting of the emergency rule imposed on Rivers State, which could lead to Fubara’s reinstatement as governor.

The peace deal is seen as a significant political win for President Tinubu, showcasing his ability to mediate high-profile disputes and promote stability in Nigeria’s governance landscape.
