Rivers Speaker, Ehie Edison, Escapes Assassination by RiversMirror: 5:33am On Nov 20, 2023
NEW SPEAKER RIVERS STATE ASSEMBLY, EHIE EDISON, ESCAPES ASSASSINATION.

...As Gunmen Attack His House.

At about 11pm on Sunday the 19th day of November, 2023, a group of Armed thugs and rogue Police Officers led by one SP. Irikefe London Owen, a superintendent of Police attached to the CTU B 3 RSV and CSP Salihu Masalachi attacked the private residence of the Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Barr. Edison Ogerenye Ehie, DSSRS, fully armed with an intention to assassinate Mr. Speaker and his family.

However, the thugs and rogue Police Officers led by the two above-named police officers in Rivers State were vehemently repelled in a gun battle by the official security details attached to the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Barr. Edison Ogerenye Ehie, DSSRS.

It is imperative to note that the armed rogues and officers were properly and fully captured by CCTV footage in the residence, which shall be made available to all media Houses, including the CNN, Aljazeera and other National and International media outlets for the records.

In the same vein, the Speaker would be addressing a World Press conference on Monday the 20th of November, 2023.

Let it be on record that Rivers people, boys, girls, women, men including the aged shall in our numbers occupy the streets stark naked in demonstration against the Nigerian Police and those sponsoring violence in Rivers State, no matter how highly placed, Rivers people will resist them.

Finally, should there be a breakdown of Law and order in Rivers State, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu should hold the above-named Officers, the Rivers State Police Command and their sponsors in Rivers State responsible.

Thank you.

Wait, so Edison (elected by 5 people) later succeeded in becoming Speaker of Rivers State against Wike’s men numbering above 20?

Lol!

After seeing Fubara speaking Igbo, I was no longer surprised at how he was treating Wike’s madness asap.

Only an Igbo man can muster such balls.

With Edison as Speaker, the job becomes more difficult, and almost impossible, for Wike to remove Fubara except through the courts which will be to the benefit of LP.

So, either way, Wike is fvcked!

I hope his agbado people come to help him remove Fubara.

Rt Hon Martins Amewhule is also the speaker of the House.

Currently this is a factional thing.

Let us allow them settle themselves amicably.

Which speaker, you guys are always on the losing side. Edison is on the run and wike still has 27 members out of 31 loyal to him. How would removal through the court benefit LP, you're very daaft, LP didn't even come third in Rivers governorship election.

Edison is not fighting wike, he's fighting the PDP bigwigs in Rivers, he'll lose woefully, he allegedly burnt the house, he will be arrested and heaven will not fall, watch and learn

Wike vs Sim never finish?

Ormo, the only way to impeach Sim has been closed and now the only option that's left (possibly murder) ain't favourable.

Anyway, let's see how it ends.

The death news everyday is something else, it's either they slump and die or someone wants to assassinate them. He should thank his God.

Sometimes my body get weak with what am seeing in nigeria, the youth is just been blinded with religion and tribes issues and shy away from the truth.
I can swear with my life that the leaders of nigerians have done a charm a very strong one to silence the masses not to know the right from left, everyday the hardship keep increasing and we keep adjusting , most people have not seen food to eat,most people on nairaland can not boost of 30k on their account , and the keep supporting those who wants to destroy them.
Inflation keep rising, but income keep been stignant. How many of you can boost of quality health, don't you know the more the hardship the more your life expectancy rate reduce.. I must hustle anyhow to take my kids outside this country because the country is irredeemable.

The only thing I have to say here is that Godfatherism should not be encouraged in Nigeria Political field.

It retards growth and development in all spheres.

He is not the speaker. I watched on national television last week where the speaker and other members were having one conference in Abuja. The man who speak then speaker was not the one you referred to as speaker hear. I think he is an inpostor.
