The apex Igbo socio-cultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has called on the Rivers State House of Assembly to begin impeachment proceedings against Governor Siminialayi Fubara without delay.

In a statement issued on February 28, 2025, Ohanaeze commended the Supreme Court of Nigeria’s verdict, which ordered the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and the Accountant General of the Federation to halt financial allocations to the Rivers State Government.

The group said the ruling is a victory for the suffering people of Rivers State and a decisive stand against executive recklessness.

“Ohanaeze Ndigbo heralds this judgment as an end to the unconstitutional actions that have defined Governor Fubara’s administration.

“We call on the Rt. Hon. Martin Chike Amaewhule-led Rivers State House of Assembly to begin impeachment proceedings immediately,” the statement signed by Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, Deputy President General, Ohanaeze Ndigbo and Chief Chinenyeze Thompson Ohia – National Public Secretary, read.

The group accused Fubara of multiple impeachable offences, including demolishing the Rivers State House of Assembly complex, thereby obstructing 27 lawmakers from performing their duties.

The group also accused the governor of attempting to govern with only four legislators, a move that undermines democracy and hiding behind presidential immunity to engage in unconstitutional actions that cripple governance.

The Supreme Court’s ruling, delivered by Justice Emmanuel Akomaye Agim and a five-member panel led by Justice Musa Uwani Aba-Aji, declared Fubara’s actions illegal and ordered the immediate reinstatement of the 27 affected lawmakers.

Ohanaeze urged the Rivers State Assembly to take swift action, establish a disciplinary committee led by the Chief Judge of Rivers State, and restore democratic order.

“The time for decisive action is now. The integrity of our democracy depends on it,” the statement concluded.

This did not emanate from Ohanaeze. It's the work of the gutter media from a section this country that is waging a guerrilla war against Ndigbo.

MasterJayJay:
Vandalized brains always using Isiguzoro.

This is how they lied and tagget it an Igbo coup. They are using the media to make the pig Isiguzoro the mouthpiece of Ohanaeze.

Ojiofor:
Isiguzoro is from Abia state not from Ikwerre.
Isiguzoro Ohanaeze faction PG is an Ikwerre man Chief Omenazu who was PG aspirant in authentic Ohanaeze worldwide before he decamped to Isiguzoro faction to become their PG.

Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro has finally exposed those that's sponsoring him Lmaooo

This man is not a member of Ohaneze not to talk about executive... Funny thing is media houses know this yet they keep quoting him

The other day he said Tinubu should pay igbos 10 trillion and media houses ran with it

Until Ohaneze sues media houses that quote this man as Ohaneze they won't rest
