Rivers

Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State on Monday lashed out at members of the Rivers State House of Assembly, saying they do not exist. Fubara said the Peace Accord he signed with his predecessor, Minister of the Federal Capital Terrritory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, was political, hence he can derecognize them as lawmakers.

He spoke while addressing a delegation of political and traditional leaders from Bayelsa State who visited him at the Government House in Port Harcourt, the state capital, to seek an end to the political crisis in Rivers State and an improved relationship between both states. Fubara said the lawmakers are existing based on his recognition predicated on the Peace Accord initiated by Tinubu.

'And I accepted it because these were people that were eating in my house, these were people I have helped pay their children’s school fees when I wasn’t even a governor. So, what is the thing there? “We might have our division but I believe that one day, we could also come together but it has gotten to a time when I have to make a statement that they are not existing. 'Their existence is me allowing them to exist. If I de-recognise them, they are nowhere.
