Former Rivers Sole Administrator Summoned by President Tinubu,
...EFCC Chairman in attendance
The immediate past sole administrator of Rivers State, Ibok-Ete Ibas, and the chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ola Olukoyede, are currently at the State House in Abuja.
Although the reason for their presence at the Villa could not be immediately ascertained, it was gathered that President Bola Tinubu had summoned Ibas.
According to our source, Ibas arrived at the State House on Wednesday at around 5:50 pm.
it was gathered that Ibas, who took over the affairs of the state in March following the suspension of Governor Siminalayi Fubara, had last week handed power back to the governor after Tinubu lifted the six-month suspension.
His presence in Aso Villa may not be unconnected to the resolve of the members of the Rivers State House of Assembly to probe his six-month administration in the State.
It is speculated that Kayode may be ordered by the President to look into the affairs of Ibas\' all through the six months as the state was said to have earned over N245.7billion from March till August
