2027 Primary Election Losses Put Fubara and Loyalists at Risk of Political Oblivion

Despite these setbacks, former Secretary General of the Arewa Consultative Forum, Anthony Sani, believes Fubara can still make a political comeback. “Since over the long history of nations and long life of individuals, the powerful and the powerless, the rich and the poor often change places, it is quite possible for Fubara to bounce back politically,” Sani said. He emphasized that the ruling party’s power and influence often shape electoral outcomes, and governors are keen to leverage incumbency for re-election. As Nigeria’s political landscape continues to evolve, Fubara’s next moves will be closely watched, not just in Rivers State, but across the nation.
