Ahead of this year’s Democracy Day, Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) Worldwide had appealed to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to restore full democratic governance to Rivers State by reinstating suspended Governor Siminalayi Fubara and members of the Rivers Assembly on or before June 12th, 2025.
The council appeal was contained in a statement titled: “On the Imperative of restoring Governor Sim Fubara and Other Democratically Elected Lawmakers Before June 12” by its President, Dr. Alaye Tari Theophilus, in Abuja on Tuesday.
The council said its request was guided by the spirit of the season and in acknowledgment of the president’s commitment to restoration constitutional order in the state.
