President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara
BREAKING: Details of Fubara Closed-Door Meeting With Tinubu emerge [VIDEO]
Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has broken silence after a closed-door meeting with President Bola Tinubu at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Fubara told reporters that the discussion with the president was cordial, describing it as a “father and son” engagement. He further disclosed that he and his political principal, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, were now working together.
“I don’t know what you mean by if this is a paper peace. As far as I’m concerned, we have made peace. Fubara and his principal are working together,” he said.

The governor resumed duties on Friday following his reinstatement a day earlier. He, along with his deputy and members of the state legislature, had been under a six-month suspension during the emergency rule imposed on the state.
“You’re aware that suspension was lifted [at] midnight [on September] 17, and I came in on the 19th. Ideally, it’s proper for me to see Mr. President and to tell him that I’m back, and I’ve also resumed my responsibility as the Governor of the Rivers State.
“It’s not much. It’s father-son discussion, telling him thank you and and the areas where, if at all, there should be any issue for him to guide me properly so we don’t be in any situation of crisis. That’s all,” said Fubara.
