Rivers Crisis: Those accusing me of demanding 25% cut are ignorant – Wike

Wike pleaded with the caucus members to cooperate for the benefit of the Rivers people rather than let the state down.Nyesom Wike, the minister of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCT), said on Thursday that people who were accusing him of expecting a quarter of the Rivers government's revenue were uninformed.This was said by Wike during a visit to Abuja by a group of Rivers Caucus members in the 10th National Assembly, which included three senators and eleven members of the House of Representatives.According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the Rivers Assembly's attempt to remove the current governor, Siminalayi Fubara, from office resulted in a crisis in Rivers.
