The 2023 Nigerian Senate elections in Rivers State will be held on 25 February 2023, to elect the 3 federal Senators from Rivers State, one from each of the state's three senatorial districts. The elections will coincide with the 2023 presidential election, as well as other elections to the Senate and elections to the House of Representatives; with state elections being held two weeks later. Primaries were held between 4 April and 9 June 2022.

Background

In the previous Senate elections, none of the three incumbent senators were returned as Magnus Ngei Abe (APC-Rivers South East) retired to run for Governor while Andrew Uchendu (APC-East) and Osinakachukwu Ideozu (APC-Rivers West) could not run for re-election due to the disqualification of all Rivers APC candidates. George Thompson Sekibo (PDP) won the East seat with 89% of the vote, Barry Mpigi (PDP) won the South East seat with 95%, and Betty Apiafi (PDP) won the West seat with 79%. The senatorial results were an example of continued PDP strength in the state as the party also won all House of Representatives seats and Abubakar won the state in the presidential election by 50%; the PDP also won a majority in the House of Assembly and the gubernatorial election.
