Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, on Friday, attended the Peoples Democratic Party Governors’ Forum meeting in Asaba, the Delta State capital.
The Rivers State Governor, who is the Vice Chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum, attended the meeting alongside ten other governors of the party’s controlled states across the six geopolitical zones of the country.
The first PDPGF meeting in 2025 was held at the Government House in Asaba, at the end of which a seven-point resolution was reached.
Reading the communiqué at the end of the meeting, Chairman of the Forum and Governor of Bauchi State, Senator Bala Mohammed, urged the National Working Committee to put every machinery in place to ensure a hitch-free NEC meeting on March 13, 2025.
The Forum noted the Court of Appeal judgment affirming Udeh Okoye as the National Secretary of the party, saying that as a party that believes in the rule of law, it will respect the position of the Appellate Court on the matter.
While commending the country’s valiant and patriotic Armed Forces and Security Agencies for maintaining the frontline in securing the country and the gains of gallant personnel against bandits in parts of the country, the Forum viewed with deep concern the resurgence of brazen non-state actors. It, therefore, calls for the strengthening of the nation’s security architecture.
Governors in attendance were Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed (Bauchi State); Sir Siminalayi Fubara (Rivers State) – Vice Chairman; Sheriff Oborevwori (Delta State); Doctor Agbu Kefas (Taraba State); Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri (Adamawa State); and Doctor Dauda Lawal (Zamfara State).
Others are Senator Ademola Adeleke (Osun State); Senator Douye Diri (Bayelsa State); Pastor Umo Eno (Akwa Ibom State); Doctor Peter Mbah (Enugu State); Barrister Caleb Mutfwang (Plateau State); and Bayo Lawal (Deputy Governor, Oyo State), who represented Governor Seyi Makinde.
