The suspended Governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara on Saturday joined the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, at the burial of his uncle in Rumuepirikom, Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of Rivers State.
Also in attendance was the suspended Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Martins Amaewhule, among other dignitaries.
