Messrs Fubara and Wike are battling each other over the control of the political structure in the state, particularly at the grassroots. The amended law did not receive Governor Fubara’s assent and was later set aside by a Rivers State High Court. The court also set aside all the resolutions made by pro-Wike lawmakers from last December that their seats were declared vacant following their defection from the PDP to the APC.
The Court of Appeal, instead, ordered both the pro-Wike lawmakers and the Fubara-backed three-person Rivers assembly to maintain the “present status quo” pending the determination of the appeal.Relying on the order of the Court of Appeal, the former council chairpersons refused to vacate their office, a development that triggered violent clashes between supporters of Governor Fubara and that of Mr Wike, leading to the death of two persons, including a police officer.
