Wike made this known during a press conference in Abuja where he noted that the emergency rule was not part of his desired outcome in the ongoing political crisis.

The political crisis in Rivers State led to Tinubu suspending Fubara for six months while appointing a Sole Administrator.

Tinubu also proclaimed a state of emergency in the state within six months.

However, Wike said the action of the president prevented calamity in Rivers State.

While speaking with the pressmen, Wike hinted that he was not happy because he wanted the outright removal of Fubara.
