At the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Tuesday, an encounter unfolded between Siminalayi Fubara, the Governor of Rivers State, and Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
These prominent members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) were observed exchanging handshakes. This gathering came in the wake of impeachment proceedings initiated against Fubara by the Rivers State House of Assembly on the preceding Monday.
Fubara; and Wike, the immediate-past governor of Rivers State, appeared to be in the Villa for a meeting of the Nigeria Police Council, a constitutional body that oversees the organisation and administration of the Nigeria Police Force.
While the Council is chaired by President Bola Tinubu, governors of each state in the country, Chairman of the Police Service Commission and the Inspector-General of Police make up the Council.
The last time the Nigeria Police Council met was on June 4, 2021 and then-President Muhammadu Buhari presided over the meeting.
