The National Coordinator of the South-South Leadership Forum, Sara-Igbe has said that the 27 Rivers State lawmakers are impostors in the eyes of the law.

DAILY POST reports that the crisis in Rivers politics intensified on Wednesday following the election of a new Speaker by two members of the House of Assembly loyal to Governor Siminalayi Fubara. This is following the move to impeach Governor Fubara by the pro-Wike lawmakers who defected to the All Progressives Congress, APC. Sara-Igbe said they have no right to impeach Fubara, citing that by the virtue of the law, they are now seen as impostors.

“We are saying those 27 lawmakers are no longer members of the House of Assembly, this is before the court and by virtue of the rule of law, if a case is before a court, status quo remains; everyone will wait for the judges to make a decision. I expected the House of Assembly members who are making laws to wait for the judiciary to interpret the law.
