Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara, his deputy Ngozi Odu, and the 32-member House of Assembly are scheduled to return to office on September 18, 2025, barring any unforeseen changes.
The development comes six months after President Bola Tinubu declared a state of emergency in the oil-rich state, suspending all elected officials and appointing Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas (retd.) as Sole Administrator.
Indications of Fubara’s imminent return emerged last week, according to sources who spoke with the Nigerian Tribune. This development followed a closed-door meeting between the President and the Sole Administrator at the Presidential Villa.
Ibas, who is currently on a 10-day vacation, was reportedly directed to prepare a comprehensive handover note covering all funds inherited from the suspended government, revenues accrued during the emergency rule, and expenditures on projects.
