Reports surfaced on Tuesday suggesting that President Bola Tinubu held a private meeting with suspended Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, in London during his working visit. According to *The Africa Report*, the meeting was initiated by Fubara himself, but the Presidency remained tight-lipped on the issue. Efforts to confirm the development from official channels proved futile, as no one was willing to comment. However, a source familiar with the matter disclosed that this marked the first direct engagement between Tinubu and Fubara since March 18, when the President declared a state of emergency in Rivers State under Section 305 of the 1999 Constitution. That action led to the suspension of Governor Fubara, his deputy Ngozi Odu, and the entire House of Assembly. In a national address, Tinubu cited “months of intense political instability” that had crippled governance and posed a threat to national stability. Following the suspension, the President appointed former Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ekwe Ibas, as the sole administrator of the state. Sources revealed that the London meeting was aimed at resolving the prolonged political crisis. Though official details remain undisclosed, insiders said discussions focused on restoring effective governance in Rivers State. There are indications that Fubara may be reinstated before his six-month suspension ends. Notably absent from the talks was Fubara’s estranged political mentor and current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, who is reportedly uneasy about a potential reconciliation that excludes him.
