Hundreds of supporters of the suspended Governor, SIMINALAYI FUBARA, took to the streets yesterday, demanding his immediate reinstatement.

Dressed in black and carrying placards with inscriptions such as “Together we stand for Governor SimFubara”, “We want back our Governor, we all voted for”, and “Governor Fubara is the pride of Rivers People”, the demonstrators commenced their march from Aggrey Road in the Old Port Harcourt Township.

This protest is the latest in a series of pro- and anti-Fubara demonstrations that have rocked the state since March 18.

The unrest began after President BOLA TINUBU declared a state of emergency in Rivers State and suspended Governor Fubara, his deputy Ngozi Odu, and members of the State House of Assembly.
