Just In: Rivers APC Chairman Tony Okocha hands Governor Siminalayi Fubara the APC membership card at Government House, Port Harcourt

In a dramatic show of party symbolism, Rivers State APC chairman Tony Okocha presented the APC membership card to Governor Siminalayi Fubara during a meeting at Government House, Port Harcourt. The gesture comes amid heightened tension between the governor and the APC‑led faction, which has repeatedly labeled Fubara’s recent outreach to pro‑Wike lawmakers a “Greek gift” and issued a 48‑hour ultimatum for his resignation or impeachment .

Okocha’s move underscores the party’s attempt to assert its influence over the state’s political landscape, even as the governor faces mounting pressure from the APC and the Rivers State House of Assembly. The meeting, held behind closed doors, is being closely watched for any sign of a political reconciliation or further escalation.

Former presidential aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Publisher, Dele Momodu, says a last-minute disruption to his planned road trip to Cotonou may have saved him from being caught in the failed coup attempt in Benin Republic.

Explaining that he was originally scheduled to be inside Benin Republic at the exact period the coup scare was unfolding.

He said the unexpected setback that stopped his 5 a.m. departure “was what saved us.”

Momodu narrated that the entire episode felt unreal, noting that he had already mapped out a familiar travel route.

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has vowed that he and other founding members of his led faction of the Peoples Democratic Party will not allow individuals who joined the party from other platforms to “kill” it through disobedience to court orders and parallel activities.

Wike, made this known during the party’s 104th National Executive Committee meeting held at his official residence in Abuja.

Wike accused the Turaki-led faction of violating two Federal High Court judgments by conducting what he described as an “illegal convention,” referring to the Ibadan gathering that elected Tanimu Turaki, SAN, and others into the National Working Committee after the closure of Wadata Plaza.

“You went to a State High Court to sue INEC, asking that the convention must take place, and you got an ex parte order to override judgments of the Federal High Court. How do you disobey two final judgments and still claim leadership?” he said.

He faulted the faction for “running from court to court” while disregarding subsisting rulings.

“You had the convention without obeying the court, and now you are back asking a Federal High Court to recognise you. If INEC already recognises you, what exactly are you going to court for?” he asked.

The FCT Minister warned that such actions threaten the survival of the party, stressing that PDP, formed in 1998, cannot be allowed to collapse due to personal interests.

‼️NEWS UPDATE‼️

Masquerades Not Banned — Only Restricted From Streets and Highways, Gov Eno Clarifies

- Appoints Pastor Joe Linus SSA - Religious Affairs

🎈Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno, has clarified that the State’s Executive Order on masquerades is not a blanket ban but a restriction aimed at keeping them off the streets and highways for public safety.

🎈Speaking at the funeral of the late Mrs. Rose Linus Okon at the State Cenotaph, Uyo, the Governor explained that traditionalists are free to practise their faith and display masquerades within village squares or other designated community spaces.

“I have not banned masquerades in the State. I only banned their activities on the streets where they have become a threat to citizens,” he said. “They are free to carry on their Ekpo religion, but it must not infringe on the movement or safety of others. Anyone who violates this will face the law.”

🎈He emphasized the need to balance freedom of worship with the rights of residents to move freely without intimidation.

🎈Governor Eno also consoled Pastor Joe Linus, first son of the deceased, encouraging the family to find comfort in the devoted life their mother lived in service to God and humanity.

🎈Commending Pastor Linus for his humility and long-standing service to the Christian community, the Governor announced his appointment as Senior Special Assistant on Religious Matters, effective January 2026. He charged him to work with the existing religious advisory team to provide spiritual support for the State through prayer.

🎈The Governor was accompanied by Deputy Governor Senator Akon Eyakenyi, Secretary to the State Government Prince Enobong Uwah, members of the State Executive Council, political stakeholders, captains of industry, and other top government officials.
