President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has formally declared a state of emergency in Rivers State.
This is coming barely hours after two major oil installations were destroyed by alleged militants.
This is in reaction to the political crisis that have engulfed Rivers State.
The President made the declaration in a nationwide broadcast on Tuesday.
“The state has been at a standstill since the crisis started,” Tinubu said.
The president stated that he made personal intervention to resolve the crisis in the state but his efforts have been ignored.
