Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has made his first public appearance since the declaration of a state of emergency and his suspension from office, attending a worship service at Salvation Ministries headquarters in Port Harcourt on Sunday.

This appearance follows President Tinubu’s declaration of a state of emergency in Rivers State on Tuesday, citing political tensions and security concerns, which led to the suspension of Fubara, his deputy, and the state’s House of Assembly.
