Following his suspension, Fubara makes his public appearance in Rivers.

 

Siminalayi Fubara, the embattled governor of Rivers State, made his first public appearance on Sunday, March 23, 2025, following his suspension and President Bola Tinubu's imposition of a state of emergency. Fubara was seen attending a church service at Salvation Ministries' global headquarters in Port Harcourt, just days after he, his deputy Professor Ngozi Odu, and members of the Rivers State House of Assembly were suspended in a national broadcast on Tuesday, March 18, 2025. Fubara arrived at the church at 10 a.m. in a six-car convoy with his Chief of Staff, Rt. Hon. Edison Ehie, and a team of security aides.

Since the emergency declaration, there has been concern over Fubara's safety and location, with unsubstantiated rumours stating he has relocated to the Bayelsa State Government House in Yenagoa. However, his Chief Press Secretary, Nelson Chukwudi, refuted the rumours, stating that the governor is safe and healthy. "Forget whatever you're reading on social media. "The governor is safe and well," Chukwudi told reporters.
