Wike, who is the immediate-past governor of the state, spoke on Friday during a birthday anniversary thanksgiving of one of his allies in Port Harcourt, the state capital.

He said: “After Mr. President, in his wisdom, declared state of emergency, to save Rivers State from anarchy, I challenge any Rivers so-called elder; I challenge any man of God that has made effort since one month after the declaration of state of emergency, to say they have called for total reconcilation in the state.

“Don’t think that going to television to abuse anybody will bring peace. There are people who thrive in crisis, when there is crisis, they are happy, when there is no crisis, there is no food on the table. There are those elders.”

Wike insisted that no amount of embarrassment in the media by the elders can bring peace to the state, except the leaders work together.

He said: “No amount of embarrassing ourselves outside can bring peace, you need to humble yourself for the interest of the state. I want everybody to w

ork together.”
