Assembly
Will Resort To Impeach Fubara If Necessary.
Rivers
State House of Assembly, on Saturday, said it will not hesitate to impeach the
state governor, Siminalayi Fubara, if it becomes the last resort to uphold the
Constitution. This was disclosed by the Speaker of the state assembly as they took a swipe at the former Rivers State
Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Council led by Dr Abiye Sekibo
over its recent press conference.
Speaker
of the House, Martin Amaewhule, who stated this at a media briefing in Port
Harcourt on Saturday, and flanked by 26 of his colleagues.
It
would recalled that in 2023, the lawmakers had threatened to impeach the
governor following his face-off with the assembly. But in December, 2023
members of the Rivers State House of Assembly had withdrawn their impeachment
notice against Fubara.
They
said the decision was made out of respect for President Bola Tinubu who had
convened a reconciliation meeting between the warring parties.
