People of Rivers state massively turn out at the government house to welcome governor fubara back after six months of Administrator
On Wednesday, President Bola Tinubu lifted the six-month emergency rule imposed on the state in the wake of a protracted political crisis.
In his statement, the president asked Fubara, the suspended governor, to resume work on Thursday, September 18.
He also asked Ngozi Nma Odu, the deputy governor, and members of the Rivers state house of assembly to resume their duties.
The crowd began converging outside the Rivers government house, located off Azikiwe Road, as early as 8am.
Ibok-Ete Ibas, who was the sole administrator of the state during the emergency rule, vacated a government house shortly before the president’s announcement.
