Following the resignation of the former Rivers State Head of Service (HoS), George Nwaeke, from office, his wife, Mrs Florence Nwaeke, has cried out over the mysterious disappearance of her husband.
Speaking with journalists on Friday night, March 28, Mrs Nwaeke expressed deep concern and fear, saying she has been unable to reach her husband since he traveled to Abuja.
Recounting their last conversation, Mrs Nwaeke said, “When he got to Abuja, he called that he had landed. I said, ‘Thank God.”
However, she was shocked to see reports online that her husband had granted an interview, where he made serious allegations against Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara.
Mrs. Nwaeke further revealed that she had sent desperate messages to her husband, asking if he was being held against his will, but received no response.
“The next thing I saw this night: people were calling me and said he got an interview. I said, ‘What interview? Interview for what?’ Not until I saw things flying on the internet that he granted an interview. What happened? I said, ‘That is not my husband. That is not my husband.

Her plea for help comes just hours after George Nwaeke appeared in an exclusive interview, where he made serious allegations against Governor Fubara.

“My husband is in trouble. My husband is in trouble. My husband is in trouble. Nigerians, help me! Governor Fubara, please help me!” she pleaded.
Beyond her media appeals, she also reached out to Governor Fubara directly, urging him to help secure her husband’s safety and freedom.
The situation has sparked intense speculation, with many wondering about the true circumstances surrounding Nwaeke’s resignation and his sudden disappearance.
