Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara has picked up the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship expression of interest and nomination form. The form was presented to him by a delegation of federal lawmakers representing Rivers constituencies and traditional rulers. The visit took place on Monday at the Government House in Port Harcourt.
The lawmakers and elders described Fubara as a unifying figure capable of leading the party to victory in the 2027 election. They urged party members to remain united and support his candidacy. Fubara thanked the group for the gesture and affirmed his commitment to service. "I accept this form not as a personal ambition but as a call to continue the progress we are making," he said.
The delegation included Reps Members George Lekwot, Dum手脚-leg, and Victor Oko-Jumbo, alongside high-ranking traditional leaders from across the state. No other aspirant was mentioned during the presentation. The APC has not announced its official timeline for the governorship primaries.
