BREAKING: Court halts Gov Fubara’s impeachment, gives fresh directives to Rivers Assembly

A Rivers State High Court in the Isiokpo Division of the Ikwerre Local Government Area has issued an interim injunction barring the Rivers State House of Assembly and Speaker Martins Amaewhule from taking any further step on the impeachment of Governor Siminalayi Fubara.

The Chief Judge of the State, Justice Simeon Chibuzor-Amadi, as well as the Deputy Speaker and the Clerk of the House, are all under duress.
