JUST IN: Wike, Fubara in Aso Villa amid impeachment of Rivers gov

The Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyesom Wike, on Tuesday, convened at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

They were seen exchanging handshakes upon their encounter.

This gathering of the two politicians, who are both affiliated with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), occurred in the wake of impeachment proceedings initiated against Fubara by the Rivers State House of Assembly on Monday.

Fubara and Wike, the former governor of Rivers State, appeared to be present at the Villa for a meeting related to the Nigeria Police Council, a constitutional body responsible for overseeing the organization and administration of the Nigeria Police Force.

The Nigeria Police Council is presided over by President Bola Tinubu.

The council consists of the governors of all states in the Federation, the Chairman of the Police Service Commission, and the Inspector-General of Police.

The most recent session of the Nigeria Police Council took place on June 4, 2021, with then-President Muhammadu Buhari presiding over the meeting.
