Winners and Losers in Rivers State Emergency Rule Reinstatement: Tinubu Gains Ground
President Tinubu's reinstatement of Governor Fubara in Rivers State following the lifting of the emergency rule has led to a list of winners and losers in the political landscape. The reinstatement aims to quell unrest caused by repeated pipeline vandalism and political tensions in the state.
Tinubu emerges as a key winner, securing critical national assets and gaining political ground, positioning the APC favorably for the 2027 general election. Former Governor Nyesom Wike is noted as a loser, losing key positions and political relevance.
The move is seen as a strategic step towards stabilizing the region and ensuring effective governance under Fubara's leadership.
