The Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, on Thursday (today), held a closed-door meeting with President Bola Tinubu at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Fubara, who arrived at the Villa around 5.35 pm, left over an hour later.
He refused to disclose the purpose of his visit to journalists.

Those who signed the resolution included Fubara; Deputy Governor, Prof. Ngozi Ordu; the FCT Minister, Wike; National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu; Speaker, Rivers State Assembly, Martin Amaewhule; PDP Chairman, Rivers State, Aaron Chukwuemeka and APC Chairman, Rivers State, Tony Okocha.
According to the directive, Fubara was mandated to re-present the 2024 Appropriation Bill he had earlier presented to the four-member state House of Assembly to a full House
