 ‘I’ll turn off the mic’ — Remi Tinubu reins in Adeleke’s singing at Ooni’s anniversary First Lady Oluremi Tinubu cautioned Ademola Adeleke, the Osun state governor, for prolonged singing during his remarks at the 10th coronation anniversary celebration of Adeyeye Ogunwusi, the Ooni of Ife. The moment, captured in a now-viral video, occurred as the governor mounted the podium on Sunday to pay tribute to the monarch and to congratulate the Remi on her newly bestowed chieftaincy title, Yeye Asiwaju Gbogbo Ile Oodua. Rather than proceed immediately with his formal message, Adeleke, popularly known as the “Dancing Governor” for his spirited public appearances, burst into a short musical chant, drawing laughter from parts of the audience.

 Federal High Court Orders Rivers State Administrator to Justify Sole Administrator Appointments


The Federal High Court in Port Harcourt has summoned the Rivers State Administrator to appear before it and explain why an interim injunction should not be issued to block the appointment of Sole Administrators for the state’s 23 Local Government Areas (LGAs). 


The directive was issued by Honourable Justice Adamu Turaki Mohammed on Monday, April 7, 2025, in response to an ex-parte motion filed by the Pilex Centre for Civic Education Initiative and its Coordinator, Courage Nsirimovu.


The applicants are seeking to halt the Rivers State Administrator and his agents from moving forward with the appointments, arguing that such a move threatens democratic processes in the state. In his ruling, Justice Mohammed stressed the importance of fairness, ordering that the respondent be formally notified and given the opportunity to “show cause” why the requested injunction should not be granted.


The court also issued a hearing notice and adjourned the case to April 14, 2025, for further proceedings. A.O. Imiete, legal counsel for the applicants, pressed the court to approve the reliefs sought, adopting a written address to bolster the motion. The respondent was not represented during the hearing.


The case, docketed as FHC/PH/CS/46/2025, unfolds against a backdrop of escalating political friction in Rivers State, where the proposed appointment of Sole Administrators has ignited controversy over local governance and adherence to constitutional principles. Critics argue that such appointments could bypass elected representation, while supporters claim they are necessary for administrative stability.
