Advocacy Centre Criticizes Politically Motivated Impeachment in Rivers State

The Advocacy Centre has condemned the ongoing impeachment process against Governor Siminalayi Fubara and Deputy Ngozi Odu in Rivers State, labeling it as politically motivated and not constitutionally sound. The Centre claims that a 72-hour independent review found no evidence of gross misconduct to justify their removal.

The impeachment is seen as a power struggle rooted in past political feuds, particularly involving former Governor Nyesom Wike. The move is perceived as a means to gain political advantage rather than uphold constitutional order.
