This meeting marked a significant development in efforts to resolve the ongoing political crisis in Rivers State.
This meeting was the first public appearance of Governor Fubara with President Tinubu since the president declared a state of emergency in Rivers on March 18. It also included suspending the governor, his deputy, and the state assembly due to their inability to work together.
