Rivers Assembly Cancels Sitting Over Impeachment Plot Speculation
The Rivers State House of Assembly abruptly canceled its sitting following reports of a plot to impeach Speaker Martin Amaewhule. The Speaker had allegedly received information about a counter plot during a session where lawmakers were initially pursuing impeachment proceedings against Governor Siminalayi Fubara and Deputy Prof. Ngozi Odu.
However, momentum for the impeachment seemed to diminish as four prominent lawmakers withdrew their support, advocating for a political solution instead. Efforts to clarify the situation by the House Committee Chairman, Dr. Enem George, were reportedly unsuccessful.
