Rivers Assembly initiates impeachment of Gov. Fubara, Deputy

Date:

The Rivers State House of Assembly on Monday served a notice of alleged misconduct against the state governor, Siminalayi Fubara, and his deputy, Ngozi Odu.

According to Channels TV, the lawmakers claimed in the notice that the action was in line with the Nigerian Constitution.

“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 read.

Although the assembly earlier denied any move to impeach Fubara, there have been speculations about plots to remove the governor.
