President Bola Tinubu has intervened into the political scenario in Rivers State.
The President, on Tuesday, met with the Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, who is now the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory.
Tinubu met with the two politicians in the Aso Villa in the nation’s capital, Abuja.
Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State announced this following the Nigeria Police Council meeting held at the Villa today.
According to him, the President interfered in the political and security scenario happening in Rivers State.
The meeting of the President with the two politicians who are members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) followed the impeachment proceedings filed against Fubara by the Rivers State House of Assembly on Monday.
The governor is accused of acts of egregious misbehaviour unworthy of his position.
The Assembly Complex was changed to a chaos theatre after fire burned a part on Sunday night and the attendant drama that unfolded on Monday morning with the expulsion of senior officers in the Assembly as gunshots ripped the air.
Fubara had rushed the Complex on Monday to assess the magnitude of the damage and reported that he was fired at by the police, an accusation the police stated was being reviewed.
