Supporters of Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara have expressed disappointment following his withdrawal from the governorship race, according to reports on May 22, 2026. The decision has sparked mixed reactions across the state.
Fubara, who was a key aspirant, announced his withdrawal earlier this week, citing personal reasons. The move has left many of his supporters questioning the future of their political ambitions.
Political analysts note that the withdrawal could reshape the dynamics of the upcoming elections in Rivers State, with other candidates now vying for the support previously held by Fubara.
As of now, no official statement has been released by Fubara's camp regarding the next steps, but sources close to him suggest he may focus on other political engagements.
