Rivers Lawmakers Reverse Stance on Impeachment Amid Political Crisis

Rivers State lawmakers, including Sylvanu Nwankwo, Peter Abbei, and Emilia Amadi, reversed their stance on Fubara's impeachment due to Governor's alleged failure in resolving the political crisis. The move follows escalating tensions within the assembly over impeachment proceedings against Deputy Governor Ngozi Odu.

Governor Nyesom Wike and Speaker Martin Amaewhule have initiated impeachment against the deputy governor over misconduct allegations. Despite initial withdrawal announcements, some lawmakers later insisted on continuing the impeachment process, emphasizing the need for political solutions.
