The National chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nentawe Yilwatda, has stated that the ongoing political rift between Nyesom Wike and Siminalayi Fubara is not within the party’s jurisdiction.
The APC Chairman said this on Tuesday during an interview on Channels Television’s ‘Politics Today’ programme.
“When it comes to the issue between Wike and Fubara, it’s not within my purview as the national chairman of APC. Wike is in PDP, Fubara is in APC,” he said.
“The issue of impeachment is not about Wike now; it concerns APC house of assembly members. That is something I can discuss. It’s an internal matter, and we have mechanisms within APC to resolve such issues,” he added.
Yilwatda further said internal disagreements should be handled discreetly and with maturity.
When has askedwhether Wike is a problem to the ruling party, Yilwatda said “never, never”.
