Rivers: No Law Allows President To Suspend Governor~ Falz

Nigerian rapper and lawyer Folarin Falana, popularly known as Falz, has responded to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s declaration of a State of Emergency in Rivers State amid the ongoing political crisis. President Tinubu, in a nationwide broadcast on Tuesday, suspended Governor Siminalayi Fubara, his deputy Ngozi Odu, and all elected members of the Rivers State House of Assembly. He also appointed Vice Admiral Ibokette Ibas (Rtd) as Administrator to oversee the state’s affairs for six months. In a statement shared on his X handle Tuesday night, Falz argued that the President lacks the legal authority to suspend the governor. He stressed that an elected governor can only be removed through impeachment. Falz further questioned whether there was a genuine breakdown of law and order in Rivers State to justify the declaration of a State of Emergency. He wrote, “Rivers State, there is absolutely no law that allows a president to SUSPEND a governor. A Governor is elected into office and may only be removed by impeachment. “Also, is Rivers state at war? Is there ‘actual breakdown of public order?’ Is there a threat to the existence of the federation?”

There is only one Chloe in the world, and no other woman can compare."

HOW I Almost Lost My Life" – Actress Bambam Opens Up About Near Fatal Childbirth Experience

Reality TV star and actress Bamike Olawunmi, popularly known as Bambam, has shared the terrifying ordeal she faced while giving birth to her first child. In a candid conversation on the Me & My Girls podcast, she revealed how childbirth nearly claimed both her life and that of her daughter, Zendaya. Bambam, who welcomed Zendaya with her husband, Teddy A, in 2020, described the experience as nothing short of traumatic. She recounted how, during labor, her body began to shut down—a situation that could have ended in tragedy. "A lot of stillbirths happen because of negligence," she stated. "Sometimes it's the doctor not being competent, the nurse delaying action, or even the parents arriving at the hospital too late." Recalling the severity of her condition, she revealed, "During my first labor, my kidney failed, my heart was weak, and my liver was shutting down. My baby had already detached from the placenta. If I had arrived at the hospital just a second later, she would have lost oxygen, and I would have had a stillbirth." The near-death experience left her deeply shaken, and the psychological toll was overwhelming. "Every time I look at her, I ask myself, ‘What if?’ Those thoughts tormented me. The fear, the anxiety—it haunted me for a long time. I had to seek therapy to help me shift my focus to gratitude." Bambam’s story sheds light on the dangers many women face during childbirth and the importance of timely medical intervention. Her courage in speaking out serves as a reminder of both the fragility of life and the resilience of motherhood.
