The political crisis rocking Rivers State took an interesting turn on Monday after the State House of Assembly accused Governor Siminalayi Fubara and his deputy Ngozi Odu of gross misconduct.
The development comes after lawmakers, under the leadership of Martin Amaewhule, forwarded the notice to the Governor and his deputy, stating that their action was in accordance with constitutional provisions.
“In compliance with Section 188 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended) and other extant laws, we the undersigned members of the Rivers State House of Assembly hereby forward to you a Notice of Gross Misconduct by the Deputy Governor of Rivers State in the performance of the functions of her office,” the notice reads in part.
