The Minority Leader and member representing Omuma state constituency at the Rivers State House of Assembly, Sylvanus Nwankwo, and his colleague, Peter Abbey, representing the Degema Constituency, have retraced their steps in the ongoing plot to impeach Governor Siminalayi Fubara and his Deputy.
At a press conference in Port Harcourt on Monday, the duo
urged the State Assembly to reconsider its step.
According to them, the decision followed an appeal from “our
elders and leaders”, who begged for leniency.
They said, “Rivers State issued a notice of impeachment on
Governor Fubara and his Deputy. We appeal to our fellow colleagues to temper
justice with mercy and see how we can solve this matter without the impeachment
proceedings.
“Having listened to so many calls from our elders and
leaders, both within and outside the state, we are begging our colleagues to
reconsider our steps and see how this matter can be resolved amicably, even
though the governor and his deputy have infringed on the Constitution”.
Recall that the governor and his Deputy were served
impeachment notice on Thursday last week over alleged gross misconduct.
