“Following the decision reached at the PDP Governors Forum meeting on Tuesday, 31st October, to visit the FCT Minister, for reconciliation and mediation purposes, the Chairman of the Forum H.E Governor Bala Mohammed, CON, hereby requests member Governors to converge at his residence, No 1 Miriam Aloma Muktar Street, Asokoro, opposite Rivers State Governors Lodge at 10.45 am to accompany him for the visit,” the statement read.

On Tuesday, the Forum convened and implored the key political figures in the oil-rich South-South state to set aside their differences and work towards a peaceful resolution of the crisis.

The attendees included Governor Bala Mohammed (Bauchi), Governor Ahmadu Fintiri (Adamawa), Governor Sheriff Oborevwori (Delta), Governor Ademola Adeleke (Osun), Governor Seyi Makinde (Oyo), Governor Caleb Mutfwang (Plateau), Governor Godwin Obaseki (Edo), Governor Kefas Agbu (Taraba), Governor Dauda Lawal (Zamfara), Governor Siminalayi Fubara (Rivers), and Deputy Governor Ifeanyi Ossai (Enugu).

During the meeting, the PDP governors welcomed the intervention of President Bola Tinubu, who met with Fubara and his predecessor, Wike, at the Aso Villa in Abuja on Tuesday afternoon to mediate in the crisis.

This meeting with the President followed the initiation of impeachment proceedings against Fubara by the Rivers State House of Assembly on Monday. The governor is facing allegations of gross misconduct unbecoming of his office.

The Assembly Complex was embroiled in chaos after a section caught fire on Sunday night, and further turmoil ensued on Monday morning with the removal of principal officers amid gunshots.

Fubara personally visited the Complex on Monday to assess the extent of the damage and claimed that he was fired upon by the police, an allegation currently under investigation by the police.

In addition, leaders from Rivers also held discussions with the FCT minister on Tuesday regarding the issue. The National Working Committee (NWC) of the PDP has also called on all parties involved in the dispute in the state to lay down their arms and seek a peaceful and amicable resolution of the crisis.
