The former Rivers State governor expressed his curiosity regarding Fubara’s whereabouts during the altercation and emphasised that he is unconcerned about the charges being made against him in the current issue.

The minister vowed to remain politically relevant and maintain his structure.

According to Wike, “If I Demand N20 billion every month and even award all the contracts to myself, that’s politics. Where was he when I was fighting?

“I have to be politically relevant, and I must maintain my political structure. I can’t allow anybody to cut me out immediately.

“If you like accuse me all you like, I won’t have a sleepless night because the right thing must be done.”
