The Rivers State Government has issued a public warning regarding fraudulent announcements circulating on social media, which are falsely attributed to the Office of the Secretary to the State Government. These announcements, the government says, are designed to mislead the public and disrupt peace in the state.
A specific announcement claiming that Governor Sir Siminalayi Fubara and Deputy Governor Prof. Mrs. Ngozi Nma Odu were summoned to a meeting at the Government House on April 18, 2025, has been categorically denied by the government as “FAKE.”
The government urges the public to rely on official channels for accurate information, including the official website, authorized social media handles, press releases, and approved traditional media outlets. Members of the public can contact the Office of the Secretary to the State Government directly via +234 913 574 8442 for clarification.
The government advises the public to verify information before sharing and disregard unverified sources to avoid spreading misinformation.
