The opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) has demanded that Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, resign from office within 48 hours or face impeachment by the State House of Assembly.
Chief Tony Okocha, the APC Chairman in the state, made the demand on Monday morning while speaking to journalists at his private residence in Port Harcourt, the state capital.
Okocha accused Governor Fubara of insulting President Bola Tinubu when he attempted to offer a political solution to the ongoing crisis in the state.

He said: “As a political party, we are today advising the governor; there are two options, resign honourably or be impeached. That is the position of the All Progressives Congress. He has disrespected Mr. President and we told him that we cannot be here and have him to disrespect Mr. President.
“The offences are there; the Supreme Court has agreed and even provided us with more evidences. The House of Assembly does not need to set up any committee again to investigate him.
“48 hours is too much to give him as ultimatum. He should just resign honourably.”
