Tear Gas Fired At Rivers Assembly Over Planned Impeachment Of Fubara
A fresh crisis has engulfed the Rivers State House of Assembly amidst rumors of an impending impeachment procedure against the state Governor Sim Fubara as the House on Monday removed its leader, Edison Ehie.

This is as the Governor stormed the Assembly Complex while House members flee for safety as tear gas is fired outside the Complex.

A protest is also ongoing outside the Complex as of the time of filing this report.

The development comes hours after a fire broke out at the Assembly Complex on Sunday night.

It is unclear if the fire was connected with the political imbroglio but rumours of a rift between Fubara and his predecessor Nyesom Wike who is now Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister have been brewing for some time now.

Last week I told you people that my chairman who’s in Sims inner circle told me Wike slapped Sim, Instructed Sim never to consent to any project worths 500million and above without his knowledge


You people argued me


Now e no reach one week I talk that thing e don dey sup


Anyone who’s from Rivers state should know that no matter how gentle and loyal a rivers man is he can never be a puppet for anyone


Wike wants to be the Tinubu of Rivers where he can handpick employ and fire anyone


Lol na for rivers state wey be 80% Vikings you wan do that rubbish Tinubu carry from Osun go turn Lord for another man state where as the real lagosians no get mouth


What Wike did to Amaechi is what Sim is doing him


Rivers people loved Wike and was always behind him till he did what he did in presidential election na there him Problem start


Wike if you want to lord over a state or region then go to South West and do that one not PH

oluseyiforjesus:
Wike still d governor of Rivers



Oluseyi Rivers state is not una weakling Lagos wey una allow non Lagos indigene to control una from 1999 till the rest of his days on earth


Sim invited Atiku to come to PH so they can talk on how to make PDP better


Wike hear the news flew from Abuja to come slap a sitting Governor


Now this is the shock coming to Wike now


Amaechi is coming back to PDP, Atiku is reuniting with Sim so they can maintain Rivers as a PDP state it’s always been


Wike can’t be a strike chief in PDP and be a executioner in APC

There are also reports that a warning was sent to FCT minster , Nyesom Wike, telling him Rivers is not his personal estate.

Wike wan commot SIM Card for phone.


Breaking: Gov. Sim Fubara has sacked Wike's handpicked Chief of Staff and CSO.

Some LGA Chairmen are already aligning with Sim to avoid being sacked.
More sacks will be announced this morning. It's a purge .

Sim better acts now. He is a man and should not just chicken out,
Bring Amaechi back to PDP. Run to Atiku. All APC Loyalists in Rivers State will run to you including LP including those of us who are without party but sympathetic to you.

grin I new they were going to have serious issues.
What i didn't envisage was their rift coming this early.
Wike look around, left Sekibo, Felix Obua and decided to settle for someone he feels he can command around at will.
That Fubara is quiet is enough for Wike to be scared of him.
Besides, how can you be in Abuja and you are giving instructions to a sitting governor not to execute a project above 500m without his consent.
The governor too don vex, because people are asking questions if we have a governor, pot holes are now everywhere in PH, from Nkpolu Junction to Obiwali, from Conner stone to NTA just to mention a few and insecurity is now high in Rivers State.

I can't be a sitting governor and allow forces to impeach me. Not possible. I will bulldoze those forces to extinction.

The gov has some executive powers. I will raze their properties down and make them flee from the state.

Chimaraoke did it to jim. Sullivan did it to chimaraoke...
