Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State says he has not done anything wrong to warrant impeachment by the Rivers State House of Assembly.
The governor said this on Monday while addressing his supporters at the Assembly Complex, shortly after the House members, led by their Speaker, Martin Amaewhule, convened to start the impeachment process against him.
He said: “Let them come out and tell River’s people the offence I have committed to warrant any impeachment.
“Let me assure the people of Rivers that I will continue to ensure that you get the dividends of democracy. At the appropriate time, I will address the press.”
The governor, who assured the people of the state of getting the dividends of democracy, noted that he would speak on the matter at the right time.
The lawmakers also suspended the leader of the House, Edison Ehie, and some of their colleagues believed to be loyal to the governor.
It was learnt that the furore happened hours after a fire broke out at the Assembly Complex on Sunday night.
