President Bola Tinubu engages in closed-door discussions at the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja, with Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara, former Governor Peter Odili, and other stakeholders. The meeting follows weeks of tension between Fubara and his predecessor, now Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike. While the agenda remains undisclosed, it may be linked to the recent political crisis, particularly the mass defection of State House of Assembly members from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress. The crisis has escalated to the demolition of the Assembly complex and security measures at the entrance. The Federal Government distances itself from the turmoil, emphasizing it as a state-level political issue.
