Reports have emerged linking Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara to the ongoing All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship screening process ahead of the 2027 elections.

According to sources familiar with the development, the governor was reportedly seen at the Plateau State Government House Lodge in Asokoro, Abuja, where APC screening activities for governors and aspirants are taking place.

The reports have fueled fresh political speculation regarding Fubara’s future political alignment and possible participation in the APC ahead of the next election cycle.

However, as of the time of filing this report, there has been no official confirmation from the Rivers State Government, Governor Fubara, or the APC national leadership regarding his participation in the screening exercise.

Political observers note that Rivers State politics has remained highly dynamic following recent developments involving Governor Fubara and key figures within the state’s political structure.

The APC has already commenced screening activities for various aspirants seeking elective positions ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The latest reports have continued to generate reactions among party members and political stakeholders, especially amid ongoing discussions surrounding possible alliances and defections within Nigeria’s political landscape.

Further clarification is expected from the governor’s camp and the APC as political activities intensify ahead of the elections.
