Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State, on Tuesday, announced the appointment of caretaker committee chairmen to oversee the administration of the 23 local government areas (LGAs) in the state.

This follows the expiration of the tenure of the elected council chairmen on June 17th, 2024.

The announcement comes amidst controversy surrounding the extension of the outgoing chairmen’s tenure by the Rivers State House of Assembly, a move later deemed unconstitutional. Fubara‘s decision to appoint caretaker committees instead suggests a preference for adherence to the established democratic process.

The list of appointees includes a mix of familiar names and newcomers to the political scene.
