it is the same thing he is trying to do but he hasnt got the brains, to pull it off.

I repeat myself, by taking on Wike he is taking on federal might. Even without Federal might, Wike is not a man you take on...nobody has survived a war with Wike be it Tambuwal, Atiku, Amaechi, Saraki etc etc.

There are 2 politicians in Nigeria that are very strategic and have never lost a battle...Tinubu and Wike. This man thinks he can take them on...we go see.
abeg tambuwal dumpd wike at injury time for Atiku,wike will taste what he fed amaechi now and no federal power can save him

The way wike is going, he will end up in shame. You rule for 8 years, nobody disturb you, now you want to be minister and acting governor of Rivers state. Why?
Buhari Left power he is not deciding for tinubu, but wike left power and he is now trying to decide for the present governor. Why?

He ruled for 8years without anyone overloading him. He exercised his power optimally without any one from any quarter challenging him.

Same Wike that Patience Jonathan singlehandedly made governor and the moment he took over he shelved her aside.

Today he wants to control a sitting governor; today he wants the sitting governor to be paying him 2 billion naira every month.



He doesn't want to learn

Uba brothers with the backing of FG couldn't do Chris Ngige anything

A governor is powerful


Wike wasn't just smart

You cannot form a quorum in a state house of assembly with 8 members. The Supreme Court has ruled on this.


Fubara is finished. I. This life you have to know who you can fight. In the Nigerian political scene, don”t take on Tinubu or Wike….you can’t win. As for Wike, Go and ask Amaechi, Tambuwal, Saraki, Atiku and even Obi who he chased out of PDP.

Fayose warned him.

A faction of the Rivers State House of Assembly has elected Rt. Hon. Edie Edison as Speaker.



Through his official X handle, the Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminialayi Fubara has congratulated the new Speaker.

Nice move by the Governor.

In his first Assignment, Rt. Hon. Edison-led faction has impeached and suspended the Speaker and Deputy Speaker of the other faction, Rt. Hon. Martins Amaewhule (Obio-Akpor 1) and Rt. Hon. Dumle Maol (Gokana 1) respectively.

In addition, it is also reported that the factional Speaker has also suspended the Chief Judge of Rivers State, Justice Chibuzor Simeon Amadi, and forwarded a report to the Governor to appoint another in Acting Capacity.

It can be recalled that the Martin Amaewhule faction allegedly backed by the FCT Minister and former Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike earlier this morning suspended Ehie Edison (Ahoada East II), Sokari Goodboy Sokari (Ahoada West), Adolphus Oruibienimigha (Opobo/Nkoro) and Victor Oko Jumbo (Bonny).

The Amaewhule-faction also presented an impeachment notice on gross abuse of office by Gov Fubara, which was moved by Sunday Nwankwo (Omuma) and supported by all sitting 23 members of the House.

Oga, obaseki survived his time cos of cabals in Aso Rock backing him.

He has nothing to do here for Fubara. Na una comment will lead Fubara to his doom.

Watch as things unfold from tomorrow. Then you will shift goal post.

As for me, I appeal to Fubara to reach out to the president and other influential persons to intervene on his behalf.

Its simple

Oga you do not know what you are talking about. You just take words as you see and quote them as you like. An example is the word "cabal".

Without due process, if you impeach a governor, such impeachment can be reversed by the court. You may confirm about Obi' s crooked impeachment.

Our democracy is expected to grow and not remain with this level of pettiness by politicians. We only heard that Fubara cancelled a Wike project; tried to revive some projects initiated by the same Wike. We have not heard from the house, complaints against the Governor and next an impeachment.

Obaseki simply made the right moves against the house. He went ahead of them, before they could do anything. Obaseki already by experience knew what to do in that event. He did not need a so called cabal in Abuja to help him out in Edo state. If he got some help, he added largely his own strength and knowledge.

Rivers State is on fire presently as we hear. You may check if you have family or associates there.

It has become tasking these days to remove a governor. Who would have impeached Wike as the governor?

Now the governor with his own faction have responded. All we need to do is adopt our wait and see.

You APC goons are the biggest supporters of impunity and you thrive because Nigeria is a lawless entity with shameless criminals running it accross all sectors.

The chief judge will be removed soon. If he does not align. The Powers of a Governor Sim will come down hard on Wike and any goon who refuses to re-align.

Sim will remain governor. Heavens won't fall.

But President can remove chief Judge? 🙄🙄
Fubara is just following a template as stuffs like that has been done in the past.

Illegality has been legalized in Nigeria so everyone can partake in it.
The president is the commander in chief of the armed forces. The president can ask the police not to support the new speaker and the acting chief judge and there is nothing Fubara can do. It's the fear of the police that makes people respect the court.

The best shot for the governor is to look for means and buy upto 4 of the 24 members that initiated his impeachment to his side at whatever cost.

How many members does the supreme court say can form a quorum

A speaker, governor or president can only be removed by 2/3rds of the members of the house. Not the one that you will assemble 8 members and say 2/3rds of 8 voted in favor. That’s why akeredolu is having problems removing his deputy governor, same with Obaseki. It has to be 2/3rds of the house members. Full stop. Supreme Court decision. Governors in the past had taken advantage of the fact that whereas at the national level the constitution specifically says 2/3rds of "all" members, in the case of state the constitution does not say "ALL" but this has been clarified and confirmed by the SC...you need 2/3rds of "ALL" members to impeach a speaker or a governor.

In any event a quorum for other matters is defined as 1/3 of the members, so any decision taken by 8 out of 32 is null and void. A state house of assembly cannot pass legislation and resolutions or even sit with only 8 members present. Talk less impeachment that you need 2/3rds of all members to vote in favour.

So the people that this dullard governor has suspended will come back to impeach him and the chief judge he suspended will come back to oversee it. His illegal actions have now given them legitimate grounds for impeachment.

This thing is not by gra gra but by brains.

"Abuja — A full panel of the Supreme Court yesterday affirmed the verdict of the Jos division of the Court of Appeal which voided the removal from office of Governor Joshua Chibi Dariye by six state legislators and reinstated him into office."

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/04/breaking-news-supreme-court-affirms-fayoses-victory/

ABUJA – The Supreme Court has upheld the judgements of both the Ekiti State Governorship Tribunal and the Court of Appeal which had earlier affirmed Governor Ayodele Fayose’s victory. The apex court, ‎also said that Fayose was not validly impeached in 2006.

It's not in his favor because the judiciary and police are controlled by the federal government. Unfortunately, Wike might use the federal government might. Besides, there are laws as guidelines to being elected as speaker.

The suppose speaker has been suspended hence his pronouncement henceforth are null and void.
Wike has no any power to use the police. And Tinubu will never be this stupid to support the evil act Wike.
