Kosiso12(f): 8:45am On Mar 22
The Chief Press Secretary to suspended Rivers State Governor Sir Siminalayi Fubara has dismissed speculation about the governor’s whereabouts, urging Nigerians to ignore social media reports.

Nelson Chukwudi, speaking to reporters on Friday night, assured that Fubara is “safe and doing well” despite his removal from the Government House alongside his family and security details.

“Forget about what you are reading on social media. The governor is safe and doing well,” Chukwudi stated.

The controversy follows President Bola Tinubu’s declaration of a state of emergency in Rivers State on Tuesday, which led to the suspension of Fubara, his deputy Ngozi Odu, and all of the State House of Assembly. In their place, Tinubu appointed retired Chief of Naval Staff, Vice iral Ibok-Ete Ekwe Ibas, as the state’s sole .

The National Assembly ratified the emergency rule on Thursday after a closed-door session at both chambers.

Fubara’s suspension stems from a prolonged political feud with state lawmakers aligned with his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, which escalated into a full-blown crisis, ultimately leading to the president’s intervention.

Concerns over Fubara’s whereabouts intensified after the South-South Elders Forum raised alarm on Thursday. The forum’s coordinator and Niger Delta activist, Anabs Sara-Igbe, claimed that they had not seen or heard from the governor since his removal from office on March 18, 2025.

He noted that efforts to reach the governor have been unsuccessful, fueling widespread speculation and social media demands for answers regarding his location.

He's too defensive. He should have ordered his men to bring Wike to the government house and personalily lash him ten strokes of cane.

He won't d road to PH again

I am not sympathizing for anyone. Fubara could me impeached for all I care, it's not my business. Once upon a time Fubara and Wike rigged Rivers state election together against Peter Obi. How Tinubu won Rivers state presidential election is still a magic. God is putting confusion in the camp of the enemy. So let no one play the victim here.

He break silence and said absolutely nothing


Pieter Willem Botha, of South Africa, 1988.

"Black people cannot rule themselves because they don't have the brain and mental capacity to govern a society. Give them guns, they will kill themselves. Give them power, they will steal all the government money. Give them independence and democracy, they will use it to promote tribalism, ethnicity, bigotry, hatred, killings and wars"

37YRS AFTER, WE HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO PROVE HIM WRONG!

but he was right and will always be right. Right from when I was a boy, I always ask myself y white people listened to those so called "nationalist or heroes past". Azikiwe, balewa,Ahmad u bello, awolowo and their likes. They asked for independence for the benefit of their generation,generations unborn not us. To me, we blacks,should be colonized for life
