The political crisis in Rivers State has escalated, with the peace brokered by President Tinubu breaking down and the opposing factions returning to the trenches with renewed hostilities.
The battle is now being taken to the grassroots, as the political gladiators seek to rally support from the local population. The crisis appears to be a power struggle between the novice governor and his political godfather, with both sides vying for control of the party structure in the state.
