APC National Chairman Addresses Rivers State Political Crisis Amid Power Struggles

The APC National Chairman, Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, clarified the party's stance on the political crisis in Rivers State involving Governor Nyesom Wike and former Governor Siminalayi Fubara. Yilwatda emphasized that Fubara, not being a member of the APC, falls outside the party's purview.

The crisis stems from power struggles as Wike faces opposition, including thwarting moves allegedly linked to Bola Tinubu. Lawmakers loyal to Wike have reportedly made impeachment attempts against him, prompting concerns and reactions from various individuals like Oladiji Dada and Sola Ayeni.

The situation also involves potential defections, with some lawmakers considering joining the APC. Despite ongoing legal discussions and assurances from the APC, the impeachment proceedings against Wike remain a subject of uncertainty, with court interventions leading to indefinite adjournments.
