The Simplified Movement Worldwide, a major grassroots mobilisation group for Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara, has welcomed Vice iral Ibok-Ete Ibas (rtd) as the newly appointed Sole of Rivers State under the Emergency Rule declared by President Bola Tinubu.

In a statement signed by its Director General, Evans Bipi, the group expressed confidence in Ibas’ ability to manage the state’s affairs, citing his vast experience as a former naval chief and Nigeria’s immediate past High Commissioner to Ghana.

However, the group strongly refuted comments attributed to the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi, which suggested that the Emergency Rule was necessitated by rising insecurity in Rivers State.

The Simplified Movement described these claims as “baseless and fallacious,” insisting that the state had remained largely peaceful under Governor Fubara despite the political tensions. The group argued that the President may have been misled into declaring the Emergency Rule and emphasized Governor Fubara’s commitment to upholding the rule of law.

According to the statement, the governor had made multiple attempts to present the 2025 budget to the Rivers State House of Assembly in compliance with the Supreme Court ruling but was met with resistance.

“The Governor was denied access to the Assembly Quarters despite formally notifying lawmakers of his intention to present the budget. Even after scheduling a third attempt for March 19, the House rebuffed the invitation, only for the Emergency Rule to be declared on the night of March 18,” the statement read.

The group accused the Assembly of deliberately frustrating the governor’s efforts, claiming that their ultimate goal was impeachment rather than legislative oversight. It reaffirmed its unwavering for Governor Fubara, portraying him as a victim of political manoeuvring aimed at wresting control of the state’s resources.

“Your Excellency, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, GSSRS, an epitome of Nigeria’s democracy, rest assured that the Simplified Movement Worldwide, the most formidable socio-political movement in Rivers State and beyond, stands solidly behind you,” the statement concluded.

The Simplified Movement urged continued prayers for Governor Fubara and called for peace amid the unfolding political crisis.

I'm sure Fubara would have put a call through to Mr President thanking him for saving him from being impeached, he would have sent some of his men to Abuja to prostrate before Mr President as a show of sincere appreciation for his magnanimity. First was Fubara's Chief of Staff, declaring for the Sole on behalf of Fubara, and now, another staunch member of Fubara's camp coming out to express for the State of emergency.
This has cleared all doubts as to give credence to Mr President 's decision, both sides are in agreement of the decision. Which means any other contrary opinion is only political. The coalition of opposition, the vultures and hyenas raising their unsolicited voices are only interested in scoring a cheap political score. If both parties are in alignment, then how can you being a stranger be crying more than the bereaved.
And to the online novices and rabble ros, you can now put your political and tribal prejudice to rest. It shows that you are no consequential in this debate. Peace is returning to Rivers State and obviously some bitter people do not like it. God bless Nigeria.

Anything to stop Wike from stealing River state is welcomed but who is in his right of senses would trust that drug baron

Brains don dey reset.

In the minds of sard west miscreants

If they do anyhow, them go see anyhow. Government all over the world is next after God, did u hear from Asari again? Even if they impeach fubara las las, nothing will happen.

Two weeks only no one will want Fubara again.

In 3 months Wike will fight Tinubu

Fubara has no option than to be loyal to President Tinubu. After this emergency, all the political gladiators in River state would have learnt something, and shelve their differences till 2027 election.

Wike won't like this news

A forgone conclusion

The question now is, what next state in the future will this renewed template of state of emergency be used on?

Fubara would have being impeached and Rivers State will thrown into chaos if not for Tinubu

Sim with a network is of no use....
Ipob has finished whatever is left of fubara career.
In all you do....avoid Ipob, sowore, , adeyanju, tomato paste, and even falana to you.

Hunger no be good thing oh.... How many days now... Una Don leave una oga

Ehen

Every smart person knows Wike is the ultimate loser here

He has lost his grip on Rivers state forever

He wanted to use Supreme Court to outfox Tinubu

Now he has lost out.

There can be only one Jagaban nationwide at this time

And some pained losers were taking paracetamol for another person's headache.
They are calling Tinubu all sorts of names not knowing Fubara is happy that PBAT saved his as5.

Dem don move on. Trust sycophant at your own risk.

Na Wike brain reset because his plan to impeach the speaker has hit the rock by the declaration of state of emergency. By the time the 6 months suspension is complete, fubara will woulda woed many of the house to his side

It is Wike that will be the loser here

What many have failed to understand is that Tinubu needs both Fubara and Wike for his 2027 ambition. He won't dump wike for Fubara and he's not going to dump Fubara for wike as well. He needs both of them. The biggest loser here is PDP.

Ipobidients are confused as we speak.

I don screenshot this!

for d meantime I will call u G.O! General Overseer!

Why?

Because FUBARA is a political calculator and Tactician

Agbegbaorogboye:

you no get chill I swear . Let's wait. If PDP governors fail to sue as they said, I ll know "something" is amiss. It's definitely won't favour wike if it's what am thinking.

Shey dem get choice ni? JAGABAN on the beat

They have no options. One Soldier go one soldier come na so life is arranged.

Life must go on.

Fubara is gone.

Have you seen Wike fight Goatluck Jonathan and his fat garrulous cantankerous Sheppopo wife?
