On Tuesday, the President held a meeting at Aso Villa in Abuja with Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, who now serves as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory.
The gathering, revealed by Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State after a Nigeria Police Council meeting, aimed to address the unfolding political and security situation in Rivers State.
This meeting involved two prominent politicians, both members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
It was convened in response to the impeachment proceedings initiated against Governor Fubara by the Rivers State House of Assembly the previous Monday.
The charges against him relate to alleged acts of gross misconduct.
According to Vanguard, the situation escalated when a fire broke out in the Assembly Complex on Sunday night, leading to a chaotic scene on Monday morning.
This chaos culminated in the removal of key officers within the Assembly, accompanied by gunshots.
Governor Fubara visited the Complex to assess the damage and claimed that he was shot at by the police. The police subsequently initiated an investigation into these allegations.
