The Rivers State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has described the Martin Amaewhule-led 27 Rivers House of Assembly members as illegal following threats to impeach Governor Sim Fubara. The state chapter of the party asked the Assembly to allow the courts to determine their status following their defection from PDP to APC.

The Martin Amaewhule-led 27 lawmakers, who are loyalists of Nyesom Wike, the Minister of Federal Capital Territory, FCT, had threatened to impeach Fubara over his refusal to implement an eight-point Peace Accord signed with Wike on the orders of President Bola Tinubu The state Assembly also accused Fubara of not funding the Rivers Independent Electoral Commission to conduct elections for local government councils in the State.

He said: “You have several cases querying your legality in Courts, why are you running away from them? You are here constituting a public nuisance, engaging in illegal assembly, taking illegal decisions, and making illegal laws, knowing full well that you no longer represent your constituents. “If you want to know what Rivers people think about you, go to the streets and ask questions. You are an illegal assembly and your laws are inconsequential to Rivers people.
