Rivers State Government Denies Allegations of Removing President Tinubu's Portrait
The Rivers State Government has denied allegations made by the Nation Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN) that Governor Siminalayi Fubara ordered the removal of President Tinubu's portrait from the government house. The Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Information and Communication, Dr. Honour Sirawoo, described the claims as baseless, inflammatory, and misleading.
He emphasized the strong collaborative relationship between the state and the federal government, particularly with President Tinubu. The NYCN's accusations were condemned for lacking factual basis and were deemed disrespectful and ungrateful.
Sirawoo urged for calm and responsible engagement during a time when the state needs unity. The statement aimed to address the insinuations and reaffirm the state government's commitment to working harmoniously with the federal government.
