President Bola Tinubu, on Tuesday night, declared a state of emergency in Rivers State, thereby suspending Governor Siminalayi Fubara and his deputy for a period of six months.

He also suspended the state assembly for the same period of time.

In their place, Tinubu has appointed a former Chief of Naval Staff, Admiral Ikwe Ibas, as the Sole Administrator of the State

Tinubu said his decisions were to forestall further breakdown of law and order in the State bedevilled by political crisis for almost a year now.

However, the administrator cannot make laws but can make regulations that must be accepted by the national executive council.
