Rivers ADC: State of Emergency the Only Benefit from Tinubu’s Administration

In a video shared on Facebook, the ADC’s Publicity Secretary in Rivers State, Chizy Enyi, asserted that the state has seen no other tangible benefits from President Tinubu’s administration. The state of emergency, declared in May 2026, was lifted in October, after six months. Enyi, however, did not specify what other benefits the ADC might have expected.
According to Daily Post Nigeria, this claim comes amidst ongoing tensions between the Rivers State government and the federal government.
The Rivers State Government, led by Governor Nyesom Wike, has frequently clashed with the Tinubu administration over issues such as federal intervention in state affairs and the distribution of oil revenues.
This development underscores the ongoing power struggle between the federal government and some state governments, particularly in the Niger Delta region, which is rich in oil resources.
It remains to be seen how this situation will unfold in the coming months.
