The All Progressives Congress, APC, National Chairman, Nentawe Yilwatda, has designated Governor Sim Fubara as the party’s leader in Rivers State.

This comes amid ongoing confrontations between Fubara and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, over the state’s leadership position.

Following his switch to the APC, Fubara announced himself the state’s APC 001.

However, Wike criticized the governor’s viewpoint, emphasizing that he controls the state’s political system, citing the APC and Peoples Democratic Party’s alliance to back President Bola Tinubu in 2027.

In response, the APC National Chairman announced he would support Fubara for a second term if he won the party’s primary.

In an interview on Channels Television’s Hard Copy, Yilwatda said: “Governor Fubara is the leader of the APC in Rivers State, but he would need to coordinate with every other person in the state.

“I don’t choose who to support in the state’s primary election. If Fubara emerges as the APC candidate, I’ll support him.

“If he loses the primary, I’ll sympathise with him and go with the person who wins the primary election.”
