In 2027, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, announced that APC gubernatorial candidate Kingsley Chinda will be the next governor of Rivers State. The former governor's declaration was made during a celebratory event organized by the Ogbakor Ikwerre, an organization representing the Ikwerre ethnic group, at Obiri-Ehie.
Wike recognized the important presence of dignitaries at the gathering and introduced Chinda as the "former Minority Leader in the House of Representatives and, by the grace of God, the next governor of Rivers State." If elected, Chinda, who serves in the House of Representatives, would succeed Governor Siminalayi Fubara, who chose not to run for re-election. Chinda has been seen as Wike's preferred successor in light of political changes in the state.
