Following the political feud between Governor SIM Fubara of Rivers state and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, the Nigerian Labour Congress, (NLC) Trade Union Congress, (TUC) National Association of Nigerian Students, (NANS) Labour Centres, ITC, Traders and others on Friday took to the streets of Port Harcourt to show solidarity to Fubara.
Recall that 27 lawmakers of the Rivers State House of Assembly loyal to Wike had defected to the All Progressives Congress, APC, after Fubara was threatened with an impeachment.
The power tussle between the duo led to about seven commissioners resigning their appointment.
In a bid to resolve the crisis, President Bola Tinubu made Wike and Fubara sign a peace deal after issuing an eight-point resolution.
Following Tinubu’s intervention, the state Assembly withdrew the impeachment notice against Fubara.
However, some political analysts have castigated the president for presenting a belittling document to the Rivers state governor to sign.
