Hundreds of Rivers State women on Wednesday, flooded the streets of Port-Harcourt to demand the immediate reinstatement of the suspended state Governor, Mr. Siminalayi Fubara.
Chanting “Bring Back Sim” in unison, the women took over major roads in a show of solidarity, calling on President Bola Tinubu to revoke the emergency rule currently imposed in the State.
News Band reported that as part of the emergency rule in River State, Governor Siminalayi Fubara, his deputy Professor Ngozi Odu, and the Rivers State House of Assembly were all suspended from office.
In their place, former Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas, was appointed as the sole administrator to oversee the state’s affairs.
Ibas, on assumption of office, suspended all political appointees as well as heads of government departments and agencies.
