Siminalayi Fubara, the suspended governor of Rivers State, has hundreds of fans who have flocked to the streets of Port Harcourt to demonstrate and call for his reinstatement.
On Tuesday, April 22, 2025, the demonstrators reportedly began their march from Aggrey Road in Old Port Harcourt Township.

The demonstrators, dressed in black, reportedly carried signs that read, “Together we stand for Governor Sim Fubara,” “We want back our governor; we all voted for him,” and “Governor Fubara is the pride of Rivers People,” according to reports.
President Bola Tinubu proclaimed a state of emergency in Rivers State on March 18 and suspended Fubara, his deputy, Ngozi Odu, and members of the state’s House of Assembly. This is the most recent in a string of anti- and pro-protests that have shaken the state.
