Nigeria’s President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has appointed Vice Admiral Onok Ete Ibas as sole administrator of Rivers State.
The appointment followed the declaration of a State of Emergency in Rivers State.
By the declaration, he suspended Governor Siminalayi Fubara for an initial period of six months.
He said: “In the meantime, I hereby nominate Vice Admiral Ibokette Ibas (Rtd) as Administrator to take charge of the affairs of the state in the interest of the good people of Rivers State. For the avoidance of doubt, this declaration does not affect the judicial arm of Rivers State, which shall continue to function in accordance with their constitutional mandate.”
