Fubara Silent on APC's Stance Against Rainbow Coalition
Rivers State Governor Sir Siminalayi Fubara has not publicly responded to the All Progressives Congress (APC) leadership's decision to dissociate from the Progressive Governors’ Forum (PGF) regarding the Rainbow Coalition. This silence comes more than four days after the state party issued a statement supporting the coalition.
A call to Fubara's media aide, Onwuka Nzechi, went unanswered. Mixed reactions have surfaced among APC members in Rivers State about the party's continued alignment with the Rainbow Coalition, despite the PGF's stance.
Former House of Representatives member Hon. Ogbonna Nwuke stated that the national APC should not be overly concerned about the coalition in Rivers, emphasizing the right to association. He noted that both the APC and the Rainbow Coalition share a common goal of supporting the president.
Darlington Nwauju, spokesman for the Emeka Bekwele-led APC in Rivers State, highlighted the importance of governors within the party, likening their role to fish needing water to survive.
