BREAKING NEWS: Fubara Dissolves Rivers State Executive Council
Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has officially dissolved the State Executive Council, marking a major political development in the oil-rich state. The dissolution affects all commissioners and special advisers, who have been directed to hand over immediately to permanent secretaries or the most senior officials in their respective ministries.
The decision was announced on February 12, 2026, through a special government statement issued by the governor’s media office. According to the announcement, the move takes immediate effect, effectively ending the tenure of the current cabinet.
Political analysts say the action is closely linked to the ongoing political realignment and reconciliation efforts in Rivers State following months of intense power struggle within the state’s political structure. The dissolution is widely seen as a strategic step by Governor Fubara to reset governance, consolidate authority, and pave the way for a new executive team.
Residents and stakeholders are now watching closely for the appointment of a new cabinet, which is expected to signal the governor’s next policy direction and political strategy.
