Ex-Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar will lead opposition political leaders on Thursday, March 20, to address a world press conference on the Rivers’ state of emergency.

It was reported that President Bola Tinubu, on Tuesday, declared a state of emergency in Rivers State. He also suspended Governor Siminalayi Fubara, his deputy and members of the House of Assembly.

Fubara, his deputy and House members’ suspension ignited condemnation from Atiku, Peter Obi, Nasir El-Rufai and former Rivers State governor, Rotimi Amaechi.

The Nigeria Bar Association (NBA), in a statement by its president, Afam Osigwe (SAN), also condemned the President’s action.

The Attorney-General of the Federation, Lateef Fagbemi, however, argued that the President’s action was in line with his constitutional rights.

He added that the move was to save Fubara from the impeachment plot.

In a statement on Thursday, Atiku’s Special Assistant on Media (Broadcast), Abdula Rasheeth, said the press conference would be held at 10:00 am, in Abuja.

The picture of the statement showed Amaechi, El-Rufai and Obi would be in the press conference.

“His Excellency Atiku Abubakar, GCON, Vice President of Nigeria 1999 – 2007, will be leading a Joint Press Conference today, Thursday, March 20, 2025, alongside Concerned Leaders and Political Stakeholders in Nigeria regarding the unconstitutional declaration of a State of Emergency in Rivers State by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The event is scheduled for 10:00 AM at the Shehu Musa Yar’adua Centre in Abuja,” it read.

Who do you think the AGF will work for? Or you forget he is appointee of the FG. Worse still are elected officials in the senate and House not working for the president in Nigeria especially? And the worst the Supreme Court working for the president I don’t know of other African countries. Dude we don’t have independent judicial systems and no rule of law in that country. President Terrible is just an autocrat

Are they forming a new football club in Nigeria?
Frustrated Politicians United.
What do you expected? Frustrated lovers would always gathered together.
Winners are busy with governance. I'm sure Atiku will still contest at 96 years of age
