President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Tuesday held a private meeting with suspended Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, at his residence in Lagos, marking their first official engagement since the political crisis that led to the imposition of Emergency Rule in the state, News360 Nigeria reports.

The meeting comes months after President Tinubu, on March 18, 2025, dissolved the elected government in Rivers State, suspending Governor Fubara, his deputy, and the entire House of Assembly, over rising insecurity and a breakdown of governance.

In the wake of the decision, Vice iral Ibok Ete Ibas (rtd), a former Chief of Naval Staff, was named Sole for an initial six-month tenure to stabilise the state.

Since his removal from office, Governor Fubara has maintained a low profile but recently voiced public for President Tinubu’s intervention, calling it “the right call at the right time” to restore calm to the troubled state.

In an address to Rivers people last week, Fubara assured them that the Emergency Rule would soon be lifted and promised to return to office alongside his officials.

Interestingly, the governor also hinted at a reconciliation with his political mentor and Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike, whose long-standing feud with Fubara had contributed to the unrest in Rivers.

However, Wike, speaking at a media briefing on Monday, disclosed that President Tinubu did not consult him before declaring the Emergency Rule.

The former Rivers governor said if he had been notified, he would not have endorsed such a move.

Wike left the group chat

Government.

Govern - to control
Ment - the mental body, mind.

Governments do not govern your body, they govern your mind, because it’s the root cause of reality.


Belief systems are building blocks to reality.

Go and drink Garri and groundnut first and look again

I can perceive something fishy.

Fubara is now learning very fast..


All the lightweights political praise singers have deserted him...left him to face his fate all by himself..

Sense of reasoning don prevail and he now appears very humble...doing all he could to regain his governorship seat.

Politics in Nigeria is not for the weak.

I would commend tinubu for suspending those guys atleast they will learn how to behave like civilized humans

In politics once you betray you can never be trusted again. Fubara has more to prove he can be trusted again. Perhaps he needs to mortgage his liver and kidney this time around.

Fubara you’re a weak man. Take a bold step, APC and show Wike Shege. Once you’re in APC, Wike is done because APC will believe you to deliver your state to them by so doing that wicked Wike won’t have any relevance anymore

Him body Don calm down... People are saying he folded quickly... Na person wey get hands dey fight boxing oh...

If dem like make dem meet on top open doors, Na dem Sabi

He has to fulfil the condition for returning to power
1. Come to APC
2. Go and beg your oga
3. Don't contest another term

No doubt, BAT is wiser than Wike

After Rufai Oseni, Ugochinyere, Dele Momodu and Obidients misled Fubara, they are nowhere to be found near him at his low moments.

This was how you people deceived him from your dot states. Which APC is Fubara ing?
APC has two factions in Rivers State. One is led by Pro-Amaechi followers the other is led by Pro-Wike followers. Should he Pro-Amaechi he by default is against Tinubu. He can't the pro-Wike without Wike's approval. Fubara presently is seeing spirits not just spirit. The Sole has discovered some fraudulent transactions that are being flashed before him. Fubara would prefer a safe landing to going back to be governor.
When he said his spirit has left the government house did you think it was a joke?

Someone that can't face Wike will write results....

Someone wey him party no see suspend na him u think say Fubara fit handle..

Just dey play..


This one no be Secondary school politics...


The only way Fubara can play anyone will be second term not this first term cause if he misbehave again Dem go deal with him more...

Obiedun:
Good. He was wrongly pushed by her ers to his destruction

Mumu talk..Which destruction ? U think Tinubu doesn't need him against 2027..

The FG is prepping to lift the emergency order. Tbh, Tinubu is a father. The way he protected Fubara was a masterful touch. Top tier conflict resolution skill.

Also safe to say Fubara is coming to APC or will work for Tinubu in 2027 if he chose to stick with PDP.

Very soon he is coming for his seat

Fubara should be grateful to Tinubu for saving him from impeachment

Which kind Gen Z talk be this

Pride they say goes before a fall, where are all the gangster people that cheered this political naive Fubara to senselessly fight Tinubu and Wike few months back, There were political heavyweights in rivers at the time Wike chose you from nowhere, all you needed to do is to stay loyal first term and now be your man after reelection, isn't that simple enough? Fubara please if they recall you back be very wary of praise singers and Nzogbu Nzogbu solidarity songs of war please 🙏
