UNGA: Chidi Odinkalu Reacts To How Rivers Gov, Fubara Dressed While Following Vice President In USA

Human rights lawyer and political commentator Professor Chidi Odinkalu has reacted to the appearance of Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara during his engagement with Vice President Kashim Shettima in the United States.

Fubara was in the country to participate in activities surrounding the United Nations General Assembly. During the visit, he was seen accompanying Vice President Shettima while wearing a face cap.

Odinkalu highlighted the governor’s appearance in a post on his official X account and said he was pleased that Fubara appeared to have learned an important lesson from his previous encounter with Nyesom Wike, the current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory.

The comment comes against the background of the widely discussed political relationship between Fubara and Wike. Odinkalu’s observation appeared to suggest that the governor was being more mindful of how he conducted himself during official engagements.

The post has generated attention online, particularly because of the political history involving Fubara, Wike and other prominent figures in Rivers State.

Odinkalu’s remarks were brief but focused on Fubara’s conduct and appearance while accompanying the Vice President during the international event.
