<p>Governor of Rivers State, Sir Siminalayi Fubara has debunked speculations that he is supporting the candidates of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) for the forthcoming bye -election scheduled to hold on February 21, 2026.</p><div class="89dsOIvV" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has slated the bye-election to fill two vacant seats in the Rivers State House of Assembly. In preparation for the said election, the All Progressives Congress (APC) recently conducted its primary, resulting in the emergence of<br />
Napoleon Ukalikpen and Bulabari Henrietta Loolo, for elections into Ahoada East State Constituency II and Khana State Constituency II, respectively.</p>
<p>Since both candidates are known allies of the former Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, many analysts have been interpreting the situation as a minus for Governor Fubara with some alleging that he (Fubara) was planning to support the candidates of the ADC instead of the APC during the election.</p>

<p>However, Fubara has dismissed the allegation, describing it as &#8220;blatant lies from the pit of hell.&#8221;</p><div class="DKelPDwp" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>He said those peddling such falsehood were doing so with the mischievous intention of creating division within the APC in Rivers State.</p>

<p>&#8220;The APC in Rivers State is one family. What happened was that in the build up to the primaries, the President (Tinubu) intervened and asked every one to support the candidates of the former Governor and Minister of the FCT( Nyesom Wike) for peace to reign. So if these candidates are members of the APC and we are all members of the same party, how can I be supporting the candidates of another political party? These are blatant lies from the pit of hell,&#8221; Fubara said</p>
<p>The governor said that it was unfortunate that political detractors were always busy fanning the embers of division even when there was none.</p>
<p>He assured members of the APC in the state that he will continue to support the party and ensure it&#8217;s victory at the polls.</p>
<p>Fubara urged citizens of the state to remain focused on issues of development and not be swayed by baseless claims.</p>
