President Bola Tinubu has addressed the ongoing political crisis in Rivers State, revealing his efforts to restore peace both privately and publicly, ThisDay Nigeria reports.

Speaking to leaders of the Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF) on Tuesday in the presidential villa in Abuja, Tinubu said he had foreseen the current situation and urged them to return home and work for peace while upholding the rule of law.

He advised Governor Siminalayi Fubara to implement the recommendations given to him and respect the rule of law, noting that the Supreme Court remains the highest authority in the country. He also called on Niger Delta leaders to him in achieving this goal.

The president’s remarks came after the Supreme Court upheld Martins Amaewhule as the Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly.

In its ruling delivered on February 28, the Supreme Court ordered the Central Bank of Nigeria, the ant General of the Federation, and other financial institutions to withhold funds from the Rivers State government. The court accused the government of “flagrant disobedience” to judicial orders and stated that compliance with the law was necessary before funds could be released.

The decision marked a political setback for Governor Fubara, as the five-member of justices unanimously dismissed his cross-appeal challenging the legitimacy of the House of Assembly under Speaker Martins Amaewhule. The ruling affirmed the authority of the 27 lawmakers loyal to former Governor and current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.

Additionally, the Supreme Court nullified the recent local government elections in Rivers State, declaring them invalid due to violations of the Electoral Act.

Uncle Bola Oga Wike needs the advice more, Oga Fubara is always ready for peace and dialogue.

Lol.
President Tinubu is quite wise and I'm happy that he told the "elders" the simple truth.
Shebi when he intervened earlier, they said it was wrong and he was politically siding with one person against the other.
Now that the "law" has determined the outcome, let them go and obey the rule of law.

See as baba emphasized the "written and signed" by all parties.

Advice yourself and your partner in rigging, Wike.

Men of questionable character being defended by hungry folks with the lowest standard of living.

Baba won!

u DARED WIKE, BAT Telling u TRUTH

Saint for public, demon for night.


Advising people when u are the architect of the problem

I see Tinubu decamping to SDP by 2028

Lies, u didn't forsee anything. All that u and wike is doing is having control of the state in order to deliver the state for ur party in 2027.

Good luck!

Tinubu should call Wike to order. Rivers State is not Lagos where one man decides the fate of everyone. Serve and step aside for others to serve. Gubernatorial position is nobody's birthright.

Toh

Final message before the resolution . It's obvious Fubara is the one not sticking to his Excellency's advise.

Okoro! 😂

Cocaine sniffing idiot.Go and give wike the drunkard advice.
Rivers is full of cowards

This case is fast turning to zelenky vs trump

I don't see the quagmire abating anytime soon.
Wike is a fighter who fights to the death.
Will Sim invoke his numerous powers as governor to remain on the seat?
Time will tell...

Wike should be given advice too.

The reason Fubara is even in a bigger mess was trying to implement the resolution given to both parties by Mr. President.

Wike and his cohorts NEVER made any move to implement those resolutions. Fubara took the first step of withdrawing a court case he would have won clearly. Now that peace step has become his albatross.

I think Tinubu should advise Wike more than Fubara.

This idiot was fighting Jonathan the good man
Tell me one good thing that has happened to this country since he grabbed power

You see this rivers state issue, fubara will take his time to implement the decision of the supreme court.
I thought by now, they would have impeached him as they've screaming since last week.

Fubara is playing them all. He's telling them what they need to hear and also playing the loser's card but deep down, baba dey delay them while planning a master stroke

Nice one Jagaban..

Nah why you be leader..

There is no dialogue between a rogue and a court order.
The rogue either follow the order or face the consequence.

Their hidden recommendations should be made open.Wike is in the habit of creating a larger-than-life size of himself and has many chips on his shoulders.Wike as well had this smiliar experience with Rotimi Ameachi but he( Ameachi) was disgraced in the end.History is bound to repeat itself.

I forsee it means I orchestrated it.

Anybody seeking advice from tinubu should be drunk.
It's better, even in a state of stupor, to receive advice from the Devil.

Snap out of your delusion. There is no master stroke anywhere.
Fubara has been fully caged.

when the 27 were gone forever?
The opposite reality would soon hit Fubara.

You did not foresee any crises. You guys created the crises.

Arindin… what else are expecting from him, it’s been well orchestrated.
