Suspended Governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara has felicitated the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike as the University of Port Harcourt honoured him on Saturday at its 39th convocation.
The congratulatory message to Wije by Gov. Fubara is seen as a further step to consolidate the peace deal struck by the duo after a period of frosty relationship which culminated in the governor’s suspension and a declaration of a state of emergency in the state by President BolaTinubu.
Gov. Fubara’s message of felicitation which he personally signed read:
“On behalf of my family and the good people of Rivers State, I extend my warmest congratulations to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Chief Nyesom Wike, on the conferment of the prestigious Doctor of Science (D.Sc.) Honoris Causa by the University of Port Harcourt.
