Gov. Fubara Dissolves Rivers State Pensions Board
Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara has approved the immediate dissolution of the Rivers State Pensions Board, in one of his earliest executive decisions since returning to office after the lifting of emergency rule in the state.
The announcement was contained in a special government statement issued on Friday, September 26, 2025, by the Head of Service, Mrs. Inyingi Brown, who confirmed that the governor’s directive takes effect immediately.
The dissolved board was inaugurated earlier this month by Vice Admiral (retd.) Ibok-Ete Ibas, who served as sole administrator of Rivers State during the six-month period of emergency rule declared by President Bola Tinubu in March. That emergency rule was lifted on September 17, 2025, paving the way for Governor Fubara to resume his mandate.
Although no official reason was given for the dissolution, analysts suggest the move is part of the broader realignment of state institutions as the governor reasserts control over public bodies and boards that were reconstituted under the emergency administration.
