 Rivers: Tinubu, AGF Absent as Court Adjourns Suit Challenging Ibas’ Appointment


President Bola Tinubu and Attorney-General of the Federation Lateef Fagbemi, SAN, were absent on Thursday at the Federal High Court in Abuja during the hearing of a suit challenging the appointment of Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ekwe Ibas (Rtd.) as Sole Administrator of Rivers State.
