The Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has declared that Governor Sim Fubara will return to office on September 18.

The state APC Chairman, Chief Tony Okocha, assured that the party is ready to work with Fubara when he resumes office.
Addressing journalists in Port Harcourt on Tuesday, Okocha said the party won’t relent in holding Fubara accountable despite agreeing to work with him.
He said, “The governor who was suspended will return to office on September 18. The APC will work with him when he returns.
“There are states where the governor and assembly members are in different parties, so we are going to work with him.
“However, that will not take away our right to criticise him when he does wrong. But for us, the LG chairmen will work with him, except that we will not agree to vicious policies.”
On March 18, President Bola Tinubu suspended Fubara for six months after declaring a state of emergency in the state.
Tinubu also suspended the deputy governor and the state House of Assembly while appointing a sole administrator.
