My predecessor seized Obua\u2019s property, everything he owned, land, schools and hotels. The wife cried to him but he told his wife, \u2018Don\u2019t worry if it is the will of God, there is nothing you can do. He stood firm. They took everything he had.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ MORE: \u2018They Offered Me A Lot To Work Against Tinubu\u2019 \u2013 Wike<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe was one of the frontrunners in the 2023 governorship election. I told him in my house to step down so that he wouldn\u2019t run. He looked at me but I said you won\u2019t run. He said if that was what I was saying, he wouldn\u2019t run. But I say you will be DG, go and campaign for that election.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI say you must be DG, and he said if that is what you want I will go and do it. And he did it. I see all kinds of things going on. They are talking evil about him. But he is here and he will still be here.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose, who open their mouths to talk don\u2019t know anything. I was the one who paid for the forms for anybody who wanted to run for elections as governor, House of Assembly and National Assembly. Let one person raise his hand and say he bought forms.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe say we are all family members with no need for acrimony. Don\u2019t spend your money, we will agree on who will run. The day we made the final decision, the Chairman of the elders\u2019 council nearly collapsed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s allow everybody to be part of it because we belong to one Rivers State. If I had wanted, nobody would have stopped me. Nobody had what it takes to even be near me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd to God be the glory, I don\u2019t regret what I did and I will never regret what I did because I want the unity of this state for us to forge ahead. If I wanted an Ikwerre man, nobody would have stopped me\u201d.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-7\" style=\"margin: 8px auto; text-align: center; display: block; clear: both;\">\n<div data-advadstrackid=\"890536\" data-advadstrackbid=\"1\" class=\"infor-target\" id=\"infor-1080250093\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/300x250b.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has said that he has no regret making Siminalayi Fubara the governor of Rivers State.
