A social media blogger, that goes by the name—Queen Amina has posted a reaction to statements by Lere Olayinka, the media aide to the former governor of River State, now minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Mr. Nyesom Wike, where he portrayed Governor Simi Fubara to have suffered loss in the Supreme Court case where in he challenged the Appeal Court judgement which disqualified the 2024 River State budget at the apex court.
The author, while reacting to Olayinka’s statement, wrote: “It is important to set the record straight regarding the withdrawal of the appeal by His Excellency, Sir Siminalayi Fubara’s legal team.

“Contrary to Lere Olayinka’s misleading statement, this withdrawal is not a concession or acceptance of any court ruling. Rather, it is a pragmatic acknowledgment that the appeal has been overtaken by events, as we are now in 2025 and the Rivers State budget has moved far beyond the circumstances in question.
“For clarity, the withdrawal of the appeal, as explicitly stated in the notice, aligns with Order 11, Rule 14 of the Supreme Court Rules.
“It acknowledges that pursuing this matter is no longer necessary due to the changed circumstances, not because of any defeat.
“Governor Fubara remains firmly committed to his responsibilities and governance, with a focus on the progress and development of Rivers State.
“Misrepresenting such legal actions to push a false narrative is unprofessional and irresponsible.”
Amina added that: “The public is urged to disregard such misinformation and instead focus on the undeniable realities of governance and development under Governor Sim Fubara, the pacesetter of Nigerian politics.
“Let the facts speak louder than any misrepresentation, as Rivers State continues to thrive under purposeful leadership.”
Obviously, tthe last may not have been heard of the unfolding political tension between Minister Wike and Governor Fubara.
