President Bola Tinubu is currently meeting with Siminalayi Fubara, governor of Rivers, Peter Odili, former governor of the state, and other stakeholders at the presidential Villa, Abuja.

The meeting follows the face-off between the governor and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, minister of the federal capital territory (FCT).

Vice-President Kashim Shettima and Ngozi Odu, Rivers deputy governor, are present at the meeting.

Earlier, Wike was seen at the State House.

Over the past few weeks, Fubara and Wike have been at loggerheads over control of the political structure of Rivers state.

The feud between the duo snowballed to the Rivers house of assembly, causing factions in the state’s legislature.

At least nine commissioners have resigned from the cabinet of Fubara amid the political crisis.
