Women from across Rivers State have taken to the streets of Port Harcourt in a massive demonstration calling for the immediate reinstatement of suspended Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
In a media coverage by Symfoni TV from 0:01, the female protesters filled major thoroughfares while chanting solidarity songs for the embattled governor. Their unified message urged President Tinubu to terminate the six-month suspension and restore the democratically elected government they voted for.
The women protesters displayed numerous placards with messages condemning what they described as injustice in the state. Their placards also highlighted alarming claims that patients are dying in hospitals amid the ongoing political crisis.
The protest follows a controversial move by the state’s sole administrator, Ibok Ete Ibas, who recently appointed sole administrators to all 23 local government areas in Rivers State. This action has drawn sharp criticism from political analysts who view it as undermining Nigeria’s democratic principles.
Critics argue that Ibas has exceeded his mandate, noting that his appointment was intended to restore peace in the troubled state rather than establish new administrative structures at the local government level.
The women’s demonstration represents growing public discontent with the federal intervention in Rivers State’s governance following the suspension of Governor Fubara amid his political conflict with FCT Minister Nyesom Wike.
