The Ijaw Youth Council (IYC), has raised the alarm over alleged plots by some elements to destabilise Rivers State, following the recent Supreme Court judgement nullifying the election of local government council chairmen.

Chairman of IYC Eastern Zone, Comrade Prince Sukubo, who raised the alarm while speaking with journalists in Port Harcourt yesterday, expressed deep concern over the current tense political situation in the state.

Sukubo stated that the 48-hour ultimatum issued to the Governor Siminialayi Fubara, by the Rt. Hon. Martins Amawhule-led House of Assembly to present the 2025 budget was a clear indication of an orchestrated effort to create chaos and potentially impeach the governor.

He said: “We expressed deep concern over the current tense political situation in Rivers State, following the recent Supreme Court judgment nullifying the election of local government council chairmen. This decision has created an environment ripe for manipulation by those who do not have the best interests of Rivers State or the Ijaw nation at heart.

“We are aware of alarming plans by certain elements to destabilize Rivers State and undermine the mandate given to our elected officials. The 48-hour ultimatum issued to the Governor, Sir Siminialayi Fubara, by the Martins Amawhule-led House of Assembly to present the 2025 budget is a clear indication of an orchestrated effort to create chaos and potentially impeach the governor.

“This is not only an attack on our leadership but also an affront to the will of the Rivers people who have entrusted their governance to one of our own.

“We firmly warn that we will not stand by and allow detractors to steal this mandate. We are committed to defending our rights and ensuring that the voices of the Ijaw people are heard and respected.

“We call upon the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the National Security Adviser to intervene immediately and halt the ongoing madness that threatens to plunge Rivers State into an avoidable crisis. Such instability could have severe repercussions, not only for our state’s governance but also for crude oil production and energy security, which are vital to the national economy.”
