Hon.Evans BP representing ogu gbolo constituency has been named the new speaker. In a chat with Hon Chinda Representing obio akpor constituency said the sitting held and all plans were concluded to remove the leadership of the house. Right now the leader of the house hon. Chidi lloyd is hospitalised with some members of the house. Ealier on The assembly complex broke into choas and staffs fled as members fought an blows were exchanged. A group is also taught to have attempted to collect the mace of the assembly while some staffs who fled claim gov. Ameachi himself stormed the house and took the mace.

In an attempt to put a lid on the situation. Leader of the house, chidi lyod has said via call to a reporter that their was no impeachment but there is heavy security at the complex, staffs have fled..
UPDATE: The New Speaker just spoke to naija info and he said 16 members out of the 25 members of the house present passed vote of no confidence to the leadership of the house.

The rivers state commissioner of information, mrs ibim seminitari has called channels to give the governors side of the story on the issue.

claims while the house was about to begin it's sitting and the speaker was exchanging pleasantries with other members, the leader of the pro gej lawmakers, evans b.p fustrated with their inability to impeache the governor walked up to him and started slapping him, to

which the speaker fought back and a massive fight erupted in the chamber between pro ameachi and pro gej lawmakers.

And then some hoodlums hired by the pro gej group jumped in from the gallery and joined the fight attempting the collect the mace. Upon hearing this from the government house which is a few blocks away from the assembly, the governour set off in his motorcade to the assembly with his security when he arrived.

The fight intensified with pro gej lawmakers throwing things at the governor. Cars were destroyed, their were injuries on both side. The commissioner says a full statement will be released on the incident.

Would have been fun to See Gov Ameachi running away with the mace as if his life depended on it grin

Somebody help me, am lost here, I thought there is segregation of powers between the executives and the legistlatives,
Why will Amaechi invade the house to collect the mace.

Yes, now I remember, because he loves Rivers people so much, he is only trying to prevent the good leaders of the Rivers people from being changed. A wonderful and selfless politiciangrin

The signs are becoming clearer. I fear a repeat of what happened in Oyo state House of Assembly in 2006 when Gov Ladoja was illegally impeached by Pro-Adedibu Lawmakers powerfully backed by PDP.
I hope the Judiciary will live up to the task ahead?

What would we have said if Jonathan himself decide to invade the Senate chambers and collect the mace personally just to force a particular position?
