Rivers Assembly stops impeachment move against Fubara, deputy

The Rivers State House of Assembly has stopped the impeachment proceedings against Governor Siminalayi Fubara and his deputy, Ngozi Odu. The lawmakers took the decision during their resumed plenary on Thursday in Port Harcourt, the state capital.

Wike to critics: your successors will also betray you

Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike has warned political office holders who back acts of betrayal that their own successors will eventually turn against them. Speaking at the inauguration of the Rivers State Renewed Hope Ambassadors headquarters in Port Harcourt, Wike said any senator, representative, minister or governor who supports betrayal should expect to face the same treatment in future. He noted that second term governors trying to impose successors while backing treachery would “never survive it,” adding that such problems usually start immediately after the new governor is sworn in. Wike, who remains in a bitter rift with his successor, Governor Siminalayi Fubara, restated his commitment and that of his allies to President Bola Tinubu’s re election bid in 2027. He said Rivers people do not need the sitting governor to mobilise support for Tinubu and that the state […]

Wike Criticizes Emergency Rule in Rivers State, Says He Wanted Fubara’s Outright Removal

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has expressed dissatisfaction with President Bola Tinubu’s decision to impose a state of emergency in Rivers State. Speaking during a media parley in Abuja on Friday, Wike revealed that he had advocated for the outright removal of Governor Siminalayi Fubara instead of the current intervention. Last month, President Tinubu declared a state of emergency in Rivers State, citing persistent political instability and escalating security threats, including pipeline explosions. The president suspended Governor Fubara, Deputy Governor Ngozi Odu, and all members of the House of Assembly for six months. In their place, Vice Admiral Ibas was appointed as sole administrator to oversee the state’s affairs pending resolution of the crisis—a move that has sparked nationwide debate.
