Rivers Statesman Questions Directives to Suspended Lawmaker

A Rivers statesman criticized the directive given to Fubara during the first plenary session after his suspension on March 18, 2025. The suspension, allegedly orchestrated by political power struggles involving President Bola Tinubu and Nyesom Wike, led to a state of emergency affecting Fubara and his deputy, halting legislative functions.

The statesman expressed concerns over the manner in which Fubara was instructed to submit state budgets and dissolve certain boards, questioning the legitimacy of the directives and the impact on democratic governance in Rivers State.
