Rivers APC Gives Governor Fubara 48 Hours To Resign Or Be Impeached

Rivers APC has Governor Fubara 48 hours to resign or face impeachment.

Epe Insights reports that the Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nigeria’s ruling party, has called on Siminalayi Fubara to resign as the governor of Rivers State within 48 hours or be impeached by the Rivers State House of Assembly.

The call was made by Rivers APC Chairman, Chief Tony Okocha while briefing journalists at his private residence in Port Harcourt, the state capital on Monday morning, March 10, 2025.

The Rivers APC Chairman accused Governor Fubara of insulting President Bola Tinubu when he attempted to proffer a political solution to the crisis in Rivers state.

He said: “As a political party, we are today advising the governor; there are two options, resign honourably or be impeached. That is the position of the All Progressives Congress. He has disrespected Mr. President and we told him that we cannot be here and have him to disrespect Mr. President.

“The offences are there; the Supreme Court has agreed and even provided us with more evidences. The House of Assembly does not need to set up any committee again to investigate him.

“48 hours is too much to give him as ultimatum. He should just resign honourably,” the Rivers APC Chairman told Governor Fubara.
