Human rights lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Femi Falana, has called on the Federal Government to immediately remove the Rivers State Sole , Retired Vice iral Ibok-Ete Ibas, citing a breach of constitutional procedure and defiance of President Bola Tinubu’s directives, News360 Nigeria reports.

In a statement provided to Vanguard on Thursday, Falana referenced the official Federal Government Gazette, which outlined the governing the Sole ’s operations.

According to the document, “the Sole shall operate on the basis of such Regulations that may, from time to time, be issued by me,” President Bola Tinubu stated.

However, Falana noted that “it is common knowledge that President Bola Tinubu has not issued any Regulation for the operation of the Sole .”


Despite this, the appointed Sole has proceeded to make appointments and remove officials who were earlier appointed by Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara.

Describing the development as unlawful, Falana said: “By treating the orders of President Bola Tinubu with contempt, the Sole has compounded the illegality of his appointment.

The Sole ought to be removed without any further delay.”

The legal luminary’s position comes amid a broader political crisis in Rivers State, where the legitimacy of key appointments and the balance of powers between the state and federal government continue to generate intense debateorder

Better late than never.

He ought to he been removed long before now. Even appointing him is even against the constitution abinitio.

He's just there to fight Nwike's personal battle against the person he thought was supposed to be his stooge. But then, what do we know??

The game plan is for people from all corners to keep talking and screaming against the man. The later presido will now later remove him, then his urchins will come online to start vomiting that Tinubu has a listening ear. grin


Next thing now you will see some of those urchins will now start calling Falana names.

Just give some minutes and go down the thread you will see them.

No need. A precedent has been set. Any president can remove any Governor tomorrow under any guise.

For those in of this action, they should accept it too when the decision is made against them.

What is "sole "
Are we even supposed to have such thing in the first place?
Is it not for tinubu's selfish interest for 2027 election?

Falana and his dramas..
Nigerian lawyers, the judges, and the whole judiciary are a bunch of court jesters. You are asking the same federal government that illegally imposed the nit-wit on the people of Rivers state to sack the same man they put their to do their hit job!? Are you that tone deaf or what? The man was illegally imposed to start with, as there were no serious grounds for Fubaras removal. Now you want the same federal government that willfully perpetrated such illegality to remove their man for a "lesser" act of illegality! Where is the seriousness? Where is the sense?
