The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory FCT, Nyesom Wike, says Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State has corrected his mistakes, stressing that he has no other option than to return to the political family that produced him.
Wike, who made this assertion on Tuesday after inspecting some ongoing road projects across the FCT, stated that Fubara did not commit any crime by reconciling with his political camp.
The minister dismissed suggestions that Fubara’s return amounted to forgiveness after years of political disagreement.
“He has no option but to return to the political family that made him. I don’t know what you mean by sin. In politics, there is no sin. If someone realises they made a mistake and decides to correct it, there is nothing wrong with that.
“Politics is not a sin. What matters is recognising that you were on the wrong path and making the right decision,” he said.
Wike recalled that he had predicted the reconciliation well before Fubara made it public, adding that his public declaration of reconciliation would strengthen efforts to mobilise support for President Bola Tinubu’s second-term bid ahead of the 2027 general election.
