Wike and Fubara Saga: President Tinubu Invites Governor, Ex-Gov Odili, Others

The development follows the saga between the governor Fubara and Wike, his predecessor, who is minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

President Bola Tinubu has met with Siminalayi Fubara, the governor of Rivers State and Peter Odili, a former governor of the state, and other stakeholders at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The development follows the rift between the governor and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, who is minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

Tinubu had in October intervened to resolve the political crisis in Rivers State involving Governor Fubara and his predecessor, Wike.

It had also been reported that the House removed its Majority Leader, Edison Ehie from his position.

The House members led by their Speaker, Martin Amaewhule, served an impeachment notice on Fubara before they fled for safety as tear gas was fired outside the Complex.

Addressing his supporters, who protested the development outside the Assembly Complex, the governor said he had not done anything to warrant an impeachment proceeding by the Assembly.

The development occurred hours after a fire broke out at the Assembly Complex.
