He said, “They have burnt other LGA councils in Rivers State, whoever burns Obio/Akpor Council, his house will be burnt.”

The development comes amidst escalating tensions following the recent local government elections.

In a related development, Governor Fubara has called on Wike to let go of his aspiration to control of the state for the sake of peace.

Speaking on Channels TV’s “Politics Today” program, Fubara said, “I’ll tell him (Wike) that it has gotten to a point where he needs to let go. We need peace in this state; you don’t necessarily need to win all the fights; at times, you just let go for the sake of the good people of Rivers State.”
