Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana says it is unlawful for members of the Rivers State House of Assembly to meet outside of the assembly complex.
Falana stressed that any sitting by the Rivers State House of Assembly outside its complex is not recognised by the law. “I would like to assume that the governor issued that executive order before the intervention of the High Court in Rivers State. The House is independent of the executive, so the governor cannot tell the house where to sit,” Falana said on ChannelsTV.
