Governor of Rivers State, Sim Fubara has expressed his readiness to step down from office. The ongoing feud between Governor Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, currently serving as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has persisted despite intervention efforts by Chief Bola Tinubu.

His decision to potentially resign, he emphasized, is driven not by political motives or personal gain, but by genuine love and concern for the millions of people in Rivers State who have endured sacrifices.
