Tacha Reacts To Fubara Impeachment

• Tacha, a Big Brother Naija star, is frustrated with the impeachment process against Rivers State Governor Sim Fubara.
• The Rivers State House of Assembly initiated new impeachment proceedings on January 8, 2026.
• This political turmoil is rooted in a conflict that began in 2023 between Governor Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike.

Big Brother Naija reality TV star Natasha Akide, popularly known as Tacha, has expressed frustration over the renewed impeachment process against Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara.

Reports indicate that the Rivers State House of Assembly began fresh impeachment proceedings on January 8, 2026, a development linked to the lingering political rift that started in 2023 between Governor Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, who now serves as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory.

Reacting to the situation, Tacha who recently made headlines for publicly backing Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen lamented the persistent political instability that has, in her view, stalled progress in Rivers State, where she grew up.

She noted that for nearly two years, there has been little to no visible development in the state, contrasting the situation with Lagos State. “This is why I don’t criticize Lagos,” she said. “It has its problems, but at least there is progress.”

Tacha concluded by expressing hope that residents of Rivers State would someday unite to address the challenges facing the state and move it forward.

“I genuinely feel sad for Rivers State. Fact is, I grew up there, I love that place deeply. But every time Rivers is in the news, it’s one political fight or the other. No progress stories. No excitement. Just live chaos. And for the past two years, not one solid development headline. You start to wonder how businesses and investments are even surviving. This is why I don’t drag Lagos. Lagos has issues, yes, but at least it’s moving. When I look at R/S, I just ask: when will this state be allowed to breathe? When will the people breathe? With what’s happening now, it’s clear the next few years are already being wasted till the next elections. It’s a shame. I pray one day the people of Rivers get tired, come together, and truly fix the state,” she wrote.

@Dannymasterp:”River’s State as the second largest economic state in our country Nigeria after Lagos State – Fubara been the Governor should be able to take full responsibility to ensure peace and stability in Rivers State.”
