Officials and political figures including Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara meet with Nyesom Wike and members of the “Rainbow Coalition” in Port Harcourt to discuss possible political reconciliation ahead of the 2027 elections.
Reports say the meeting is aimed at consolidating efforts to reduce tensions in the state. The closed-door session includes Nyesom Wike, Kingsley Chinda and their supporters, as well as multiple individuals described as key figures around Fubara. One account lists attendants said to be Fubara’s associates, including Dr Edison Ehie (former chief of staff), Amb Chijioke Ihunwo (former Obio/Akpo council chairman) and Ezebunwo Ichemati (former mayor of Port Harcourt). Outlets frame the meeting as part of ongoing reconciliation politics in Rivers, but they provide limited detail on any agreed terms or next steps.
