Ouattara considers cabinet reshuffle, tasking Mambé, Téné Birahima and Meyliet

According to Africa Intelligence, Ivorian President Alassane Ouattara, dissatisfied with the handling of several matters, is considering reshaping the government formed in late January 2026. He has reportedly tasked Vice President Tiémoko Meyliet Koné, Prime Minister Robert Beugré Mambé and Deputy Prime Minister Téné Birahima Ouattara with proposing RHDP figures for a possible new cabinet. The opposition parties PDCI-RDA, led by Tidjane Thiam, and PPA-CI, led by Laurent Gbagbo, are not expected to be included in the consultations. In January, Ouattara ultimately chose a limited reshuffle, mainly involving changes to ministerial portfolios.

ADC asks Rivers Assembly to explain reversal of vacancy declaration against three pro-Fubara lawmakers

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has asked the Rivers State House of Assembly to explain the legal basis for reversing its decision to declare the seats of Victor Oko-Jumbo, Sokari Goodboy Sokari and Timothy Oruibienimigha vacant; the three lawmakers are allies of Governor Siminalayi Fubara. The Assembly, led by Martin Amaewhule, had reportedly notified the electoral commission INEC to conduct by-elections before rescinding the declaration after receiving apology letters and explanations from the lawmakers. ADC spokesperson Chizy Enyi cited Section 109 of Nigeria’s Constitution and sought clarification on the validity of both decisions, whether INEC was notified of the reversal, and whether political reconciliation involving Fubara and Nyesom Wike influenced the move. He called for the release of proceedings and attendance records and said unresolved constitutional questions should be referred to the appropriate judicial authorities.
