The political turmoil in Rivers State took a dramatic turn as a former Head of Service (HOS) alleged that the ongoing crisis in the state was orchestrated by Governor Siminalayi Fubara. 

However, in a surprising new development, his wife has come forward to dispute the interview, claiming that the man who made the statement was not her husband.

In an emotional appeal, the wife of the ex-HOS pleaded for help, insisting, “That is not my husband.” 

Her comments have ignited widespread discussions over the circumstances surrounding the former official’s public statement.

Following the mounting concerns, the ex-HOS has responded, dismissing any claims of coercion.

“I am not kidnapped,” he stated emphatically.
