The Rivers State House of Assembly has formally activated the constitutional process that could remove Governor Siminalayi Fubara from office, deepening the political crisis that has trailed the state for more than a year. “I will ensure that this letter is forwarded to His Excellency Siminalayi Fubara, Governor of Rivers State, within seven days,” he told the House. Moments later, the deputy leader, Linda Stewart, laid a separate notice against Deputy Governor Odu, accusing her of reckless and unconstitutional spending, obstructing the Assembly from carrying out its duties and facilitating the occupation of offices by unauthorised persons. Thursday’s development marks the second impeachment move against Fubara and Odu in less than a year. The crisis prompted President Bola Tinubu to declare a state of emergency, suspending the governor, his deputy and the Assembly for six months.

Petrol station workers under the aegis of the Concerned Petrol Station Workers have opposed plans by AA Rano to introduce what the company described as Nigeria’s first fully automated and unmanned fuel stations. However, reacting to the announcement, the convener of the Concerned Petrol Station Workers and rights advocate, Comrade Ibrahim Zango, expressed strong reservations about the development. In a statement issued in Kaduna on Thursday, Zango said many young Nigerians currently engaged as petrol station attendants could lose their means of livelihood.

UN humanitarian and development data indicate that about 7.2 million Nigerians currently depend on assistance supported through UN-coordinated programmes, particularly in health care, reproductive health, humanitarian response, protection and climate-related interventions. The White House defended the decision as part of a broader effort to “restore American sovereignty”. The White House did not provide country-specific assessments of the impact of the withdrawals.
