(NAN, Port Harcourt) The Rivers State chapter of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Thursday claimed that the Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, betrayed the party and the people of Rivers State by dumping the PDP in the middle of its current political crisis.

Dr Nname Ewor, a factional Caretaker Chairman of the party stated this during a news conference on Thursday in Port Harcourt.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the face-off between Fubara and members of the Rivers State House of Assembly began barely a year after taking office, which later threw the state into serious political crisis.

Ewor said that President Bola Tinubu intervened, adding that part of the agreement was that Fubara would not run for another term. He added that Fubara was also asked to reinstate Chief Ohna Awuse as Chairman, Rivers State Traditional Rulers Council.

He further revealed that other agreements reached was that the governor should drop Tammy Danagogo as Secretary to the State Government and Edison Ehie as Chief of Staff.

He alleged that Fubara had refused to keep all the terms of the pact reached, leading to the collapse of the peace agreement and the subsequent declaration of a State of Emergency in the state by Tinubu.
