The governor wasn't serious in conducting elections as spelt by the constitution.So the governor already created a lacuna by himself which now gave the assembly members the opportunity to extend the tenure of the said guys.lets see as it unfold since you are not ignorant.na so una push Fubara to the point
he is now and as it stands now only the Chief
Judge of the state can save Fubara not be impeached legally.Because from that supreme Court judgement yesterday coast is somehow set. He has committed impeachable offence by not presenting budget to the right assembly members for 2 years.

leokid866:
did you read the judgment at all? The Supreme Court already recognize them as members of the state house.....

Odin13:
I understand this..

Fubara and the people of Rivers are in charge

SendoSendal:
This is a critical analysis of the ongoing political debacle in Rivers State.

1. When the substantive suit of the defection of the law makers eventually gets to the Supreme Court, it will be discarded. The burden of proof is always a tough nut to Crack. APC has denied having the membership of the lawmakers. Once the transfer of their membership cannot be established, every other factor is an academic exercise. Forget about the public display of APC flag and all those rhetorics. Once their records cannot be confirmed in the membership register of APC at ward level, the whole legal gymnastics become mere academic exercises.

The burden of proof is always difficult to work out. Despite all the public outcry about Tinubu's drug case, fake certificates e.t.c, the petitioners could not execute the burden of proof and the cases were thrown out like piece of sheet at the Supreme Court. That is exactly what will happen in the case of the defection of the 27 law makers, except anyone just want to deceive himself or make themselves happy.

2. Fubara should be ready to trade-off. He got to the seat as a product of political tradeoffs. You can't have everything. People and negotiations were involved in the process that made him Governor. He can't discard them and want to enjoy the spoils of war alone. Its treachery. Let's not pretend to be idealists. We all know how the political ecosystem works in Nigeria. its a give and take system. Some people gave something, for him to take the governorship seat.

3. After few days of grandstanding, Fubara will mellow down and do exactly what the Supreme Court has ordered. He does not have any choice. He will have to work with the State House of Assembly. He needs them, as much as they need him.

4. If he refuses, the House of Assembly can impeach him. The Chief Judge of the state won't be able to do anything to help him. Disobeying Supreme Court judgment is an established ground for impeachment anywhere in the world. If his friend, the Chief Judge, set a 7-Man Panel, and they deem Fubara innocent, they will be clashing against the pronouncement of the Supreme Court. The Chief Judge will not desire to put his entire career and life-service on the line to serve Fubara's interest. When the chips are down, the Chief Judge will save his own head first

5. There is no way out of this for Governor Fubara. He just have to obey the judgment of the Supreme Court

6. I just hope he is getting the right advise. He shouldn't allow himself to be mislead. If he goes down, he would go down alone

Odin13:
Fubara is still your governor and a million times ahead of you..

That’s the reality Mr Wike

Try and get sense

Is like he has not read Rivers state government press release

Wike truly a heavy wack dunce..

Plus local government elections, minus 27 decampees…

Fubara …100

Wike 00

Power to the people

Fubara is incharge.. in power and in government

leokid866:
not just conducted it has to be ratified by the House Members.....if he does not involve them whoever he makes LG chairman won't be recognized on the federal level, meaning FG won't release money to them.....

7upnigeria:
If its fairness, good but the Nigerian constitution only recognises equality not fairness. When you talk about truth, the truth you know is the one you read in the media. Try and get FACTS first instead of looking for truth that ARISE NEWS gave to you.

ozo13:
house already ordered the Former LG chairmen to continue so if Fubara do anyhow now these legally approved house can sent him packing ooo.

Putindbutt:
What's wrong having a godfather?. With all his rebellion, what has Fubara gained?

AndroBlaze:
No serious person wants a governor beholden to one man, though the idiot agreed to this when the same man brought him from no where to be made governor.

What serious people are saying is he should fight him in the right way and not ways that make absolutely no sense.

What stops a full grown man, a governor, from winning those lawmakers to his side....is he not a politician again?

Putindbutt:
And some ignorant Obidients are counting on a lower court to decide on the case😂😂😂🤣 Fubara is a goner if he doesn't go and bow to Wike for forgiveness 🤣🤣🤣😭

7upnigeria:
Lol, judgement didn't go your way.

ALTERNATEID:
The one you have is an illegal body that was not confirmed by the proper River State House of Assembly. Any legislative activity carried out by the illegal 4 member Fubara faction remains a nullity. Everything must now be represented to Martin Amaewhule for proper confirmation.

alcaptainero:
And the approval for the money to conduct a fresh election will come from the state assembly led by Martins Amaewhule. Also remember that martins Amaewhule extended the tenure of the former chairmen by six months

ALTERNATEID:
The election will be conducted by SIEC confirmed only by Martin Amawehule led Rivers state House of Assembly.

Any interpretation that can maintain your orgasm is welcome sha bye!

Supreme Court of justice judgment is final. Let’s hear from The fubara government. As far as I’m concerned, Fubara isn’t a coward. He proved that. His second term will be fantastic.

From Joy Nunieh (former MD of NDDC) who had to slap Akpabio because he wanted to sleep with her,to this latest case with senator Natasha.

Anything they say Akpabio did, that man did that shit.

Akwa Ibom men are never beating that stereotype of them being low IQ, uber-randy, nincompoops.

And Godswill Akpabio is the archetype.
