Tinubu Ends Rivers Crisis: Wike Declared Political Leader As Fubara’s Re-Election In Doubt
To Reshape Political Alignments In The State.
The Peace Arrangement Also Covered The Upcoming Rivers State House Of Assembly By-Elections.
The Independent National Electoral Commission Has Fixed February 21, 2026, For Polls In Ahoada East II And Khana II Constituencies.
The Ahoada East II Seat Became Vacant After Edison Ehie Resigned To Become Chief Of Staff To Governor Fubara. The Khana II Seat Has Remained Empty Since The Death Of Lawmaker Dinebari Loolo In September 2023.
On The Matter Of Candidates, The President Directed That Wike’s Loyalists Should Be Recognised By The Ruling Party. One Of The Conditions Stated, “It Was Explicitly Stated That Wike Has Two Candidates For The By-Elections And That Those Candidates Are To Be Recognised By The APC Party Structure,”
The Question Of Fubara’s Second-Term Ambition Was Raised During The Discussions. However, It Was Postponed. The President Reportedly Described Talks About The 2027 Governorship Race As Premature.
For Now, The Priority Remains Political Calm And Stability In Rivers State.
