Barely two days after a fresh round of peace talks at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, suspended Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, and the suspended Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Rt Hon Martin Amaewhule, again appeared in public together.
The fresh appearance was this time at a funeral service in Rumueprikom, Wike’s hometown in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area.
The three key political figures have been locked in a political crisis for nearly two years.
Their appearance follows Thursday’s peace meeting brokered by President Bola Tinubu, which sought to end the lingering crisis between the Governor and his former political allies.
Also present at the funeral service were key political stakeholders, including Senator Allwell Onyesoh, Senator George Thompson Sekibo, and Senator Olaka Nwogu.
