The interactive session between the House of Representatives Ad-Hoc Committee on Rivers State Oversight and the State Sole Administrator, Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas (retd), earlier scheduled for Thursday, April, 17, has been postponed.

The Committee, chaired by the House Leader, Prof Julius Ihonvbere, had invited the retired naval officer to deliberate on the way forward following the suspension of democratic governance in Rivers State by President Bola Tinubu on 18 March 2025.

The postponement, according to a statement issued on Thursday by the Spokesman of the House of Representatives, Akin Rotimi, followed a formal request from the Sole Administrator for the rescheduling of the session.

No new date has yet been fixed.

“The Ad-Hoc Committee on Rivers State Oversight has received a formal request from the Sole Administrator, Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas (retd), to reschedule the interactive session initially set for April 17, 2025, at 4:00 p.m.

“The Committee has acknowledged the request and is in the process of coordinating a new date for the session. In the spirit of transparent and effective oversight, the public will be promptly informed once the rescheduled date is confirmed,” the statement read.
