The All Progressives Congress leadership in Rivers State has urged the 27 State House of Assembly members who support Minister of the Federal Capital Territory Nyesom Wike to start the impeachment process of Governor Siminlayi Fubara right away.
Tony Okocha, the chairman of the State APC Caretaker Committee, made the announcement on Tuesday during a news conference in Port Harcourt.
He said the Governor has continued to disrespect President Bola Tinubu by refusing to implement all the eight-point peace agreement reached in Abuja on the political crisis in the state, to which he appended his signature.
He further stated, “A state as crucial and all-important as Rivers State churned out a dunderhead. We cannot accept that. Our charge to the Assembly is to immediately commence an impeachment process against the Governor.
“And if they don’t do that there is what they call party discipline. We shall invoke the relevant section of the constitution.”
