In a press briefing held in Port Harcourt, Tony Okocha, the APC caretaker committee chairman in Rivers State, unveiled the party’s allegations against Governor Fubara. Okocha claimed that Fubara’s objective behind this move is twofold: to invalidate the laws vetoed by the current House of Assembly and to pave the way for the appointment of caretaker committees to oversee the local government areas in the state.
According to Okocha, the alleged plan involves procuring interim orders from certain judges, which would halt the implementation of laws vetoed by Governor Fubara and declare the current composition of the Rivers State House of Assembly, led by Rt. Hon. Martins Chike Amaewhule, as illegal.
Expressing vehement opposition to these alleged maneuvers, Okocha emphasized the importance of safeguarding the integrity and dignity of Rivers State. He warned against turning the state into a pariah state due to the actions of one individual.
However, the Rivers State Commissioner for Information and Communications, Warisenibo Joe Johnson, dismissed the APC’s allegations as baseless. Johnson attributed the accusations to the APC’s panic over the overwhelming support for Governor Fubara among the state’s populace.
As tensions escalate between the APC and Governor Fubara’s administration, Rivers State finds itself at the center of a political storm, with implications that could significantly impact its governance and future trajectory.

Total Political Warfare! Wike Exposes Two APC Governors Plotting Against Him In A Massive Showdown!.
Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister Nyesom Wike has claimed that two All Progressives Congress (APC) governors, Hope Uzodinma of Imo State and Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq of Kwara State, are actively working against him and have failed to return the political support he previously extended to them. Speaking during a media interaction in Port Harcourt on Wednesday, Wike singled out Governor Abdulrazaq as the leader of an active campaign against him, noting that he has already confronted him directly over the issue. He also expressed disappointment regarding his relationship with Governor Uzodinma, pointing out that the Imo governor has neglected to acknowledge or reciprocate his past backing.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Addressing broader political developments ahead of the 2027 elections during his monthly media parley, Wike emphasized that he refuses to remain a passive spectator and let African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar secure a victory. Defending his frequent presence in Rivers State, the minister rejected labels that he had permanently relocated, explaining that he needs to stay actively connected with local constituents rather than sitting comfortably in Abuja and trusting unverified assurances from political allies. Stressing the critical nature of the current political climate, Wike maintained that personal oversight is essential to ensure everything runs smoothly on the ground.
Adebayo Mutalubi Ojo, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and former Oyo State Commissioner for Justice, has cautioned that Governor Seyi Makinde is likely to face a mass withdrawal of support from key political allies ahead of the 2027 general elections. Speaking on the political podcast OpenForum360, Ojo noted that the true political dynamics in the state will surface by December 2026, claiming that many politicians currently pledging loyalty to Makinde are merely biding their time before openly opposing his preferred gubernatorial successor, Bimbo Adekanmbi.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
The former commissioner pointed out that while Makinde’s high popularity remains his greatest political asset, it could simultaneously turn into a heavy liability. Because Adekanmbi is heavily backed by the governor, Ojo likened their political alignment to “Siamese twins,” warning that Adekanmbi will inevitably inherit both Makinde’s political goodwill and his adversaries. He further criticized the internal handling of party politics, suggesting that a transparent and democratic primary process within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) might have altered the turbulent reactions surrounding the choice of successor.
Drawing comparisons to internal fissures within the All Progressives Congress (APC)—where figures like Adebayo Adelabu, Senator Buhari, and others have navigated distinct political positions—Ojo asserted that many within Makinde’s camp are masking their true reservations. He warned that similar quiet discontent previously led to severe electoral consequences for ruling parties in places like Osun State. Concluding his assessment, Ojo expressed personal regard for Adekanmbi as a friend, but cautioned that the inner circle surrounding the candidate risks insulating him from harsh political realities.
