The Governor of Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara, has declared the Rivers State House of Assembly under the leadership of Martin Amaewhule as non-existent by law with the claim that they are not known or recognized by the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
He went further to say that the Abuja peace agreement
brokered by President Bola Tinubu between himself and FCT emperor, Nyesom Wike as
unconstitutional.
Fubara noted that in seeking peaceful resolution to the
political crisis that erupted in the state last year, he had attended several
reconciliation meetings, whose resolutions the other party, where the state’s
lawmakers belong, had rebuffed.
Governor Fubara spoke on Monday evening when he received on
courtesy visit the Bayelsa State delegation of political and traditional
leaders, led by former governor of the state, Senator Henry Seriake Dickson, at
the Government House in Port Harcourt.
Governor Fubara maintained that he had acted like the big
brother in the crisis, not interested in destroying the ‘house’, so that
meaningful development can continue to be engendered in the State while
securing tenable political relationship.
“But I know that I have always taken the path of peace. I have shown respect. I’ve subjected myself to every meeting of reconciliation for peace. And what happens, each time we come out from such meetings, we are faced with one thunder or lightening.”
