The Governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara, is currently meeting with the members of the state executive council.

News Direct gathered that the meeting is holding at the Government House in Port Harcourt, the state capital.

The emergency meeting followed the defection of 27 members of the 32-member House of Assembly from the governing Peoples Democratic Party to the opposition All Progressives Congress.

Their defection was a fresh twist to the lingering political impasse between the governor and his political godfather, former governor Nyesom Wike, who is currently the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory.

According to findings, the meeting is not unconnected with the political crisis in the state, in which the lawmakers made a failed attempt to impeach the governor a few weeks ago.

The Assembly complex was eventually set ablaze by yet-to-be-identified persons.

Anything APC touches, they destroy.

Its a shame we agreed to democrazy.!! Crazy bunch of politicians with nothing upstairs to push the country forward.. Ogboni drug men and blood ritualists only after their pocket..

Get their LGA chairmen to revoke their memberships like they did to Oshopikin then swoop in fast with arrests and court orders.

Another Imo State kind of killing is knocking at Rivers State door.

What APC can not destroy doesn't exist.

I fear SIMcard will not survive this. Balablue want Rivers and Anambra by all means.

Wike is a dirty fighter, ask atiku

the Governor seems to be a perfect gentleman, I can't imagine fubara is wike and wike is the Governor now



by now wike would have win the heart of the aggrieved house members, what fubara was suppose to do was to invite the 27 house of assembly for a peace meeting, woo them, continue wooing them, used their political friend them to bring them to your side, by now Fubara would have gotten 2/3 of majority



Fubara is looking for a reconciliation in a jungle of warriors that hold arrows and bullets

If only you had a monarch or dictator do the thinking for masses right? The dumb populace will re elect everyone of these guys in four years as long the right logo next to their name.

If I were the Governor, I'd also defect to the same APC with the remaining 5 lawmakers.

Let's all get petty and mad together at the same time.

We go play the cat and .House game for the next 4 years.

Gov. Sim no shaking. Fight dirty, no gentleman for politics.

Na money Wike dey use keep loyalty, you hold the yam and the knife.

Globad:

When your monthly allocation no drop you will know what party.

When u realise that these guys are fighting for their pockets , u would not get emotional over some issues

When sim card was benefitting from godfather, it was all dandy.

You have made a pact with someone like wike and u now want to back down

For the wike guy, his days in power would not last long going with how he is handling this shit

Its the rivers people that would suffer all this wahala

I don't see the defection as a problem, after all you Oga Fagbura has preempted Oga Wike's defection... The fact that Oga Wike have the House in his pocket does not stop the Governor from functioning ...I am happy Oga Wike is showing his through colors ... Jagaban is kukuma a Political mathematician he go just dey do like say he no look .
