By Jeffrey Agbo

The suspended governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara, made his first public appearance on Sunday following his suspension from office.

Fubara was spotted at Salvation Ministry in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital, where he worships. 

He was welcomed by a senior pastor who ushered him into the church to join the service.

The governor arrived with a modest convoy, notably without the official flag or seal of the governor’s office.

There have been concerns as to the governor’s whereabouts and safety after he moved his family out of the government house in Port Harcourt.

On March 18, President Bola Tinubu declared a six-month state of emergency in Rivers State over the lingering conflict between state lawmakers and Fubara. The president suspended the governor, deputy governor and the lawmakers, a move many have described as unconstitutional.
