The live band of Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara, has sparked reactions online amidst the escalation of political tension in the state.

Naija News reports that several members of the State House of Assembly and Commissioners have resigned in the last two days, a development linked to Fubara’s face-off with his predecessor and Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyesom Wike.

The Rivers State Government also ordered the demolition of the Assembly Complex, citing the need to build a suitable structure after an arson attack that occurred at the Assembly Complex on October 29.

While many political elites have condemned Wike’s interference in state politics, the Minister has remained silent.

However, a video making the rounds online shows Fubara’s live band singing a controversial song at the flag-off construction of the 20,000 Housing unit, which some netizens considered a shade.
