Every Action Of Rivers State Assembly Is Void – Gov. Fubara Rages As Crisis Persists | READ MORE
The Rivers State governor, Similanyi Fubara, has declared the activities of the state House of Assembly as null and void following the crisis rocking the state amid alleged plot to impeach him.
Speaking to the media on Monday after Edie Edison was removed as Majority Leader of the Rivers House of Assembly, the governor alleged that he was directly sh0t at by security personnel when he went to the Assembly to ascertain the situation of things.
“We woke up this morning with very troubling news. We have gone to the assembly to see what is happening for myself.
“On my way there, I was shot at directly by the OC operation but it doesn’t matter. Somebody will die one way or the other. You die either inside your house or on the road.
“If I’m impeached, I won’t be last to be impeached.”
“From what I have seen the security agency is even compromised. They were shooting at me directly but it doesn’t matter, somebody will die one day.
“When people here ask who is this Fubara? He is that man that was killed for his struggle. I am not against anybody. I’m not planning anything against anybody that I don’t know where these things are coming from.
“Let it be put on record that whoever masterminded this is trying to shift… I heard some people gathered to do whatever. That is purely rubbish. You can’t sit when there is problem and say you are doing anything. What are you doing? I’m the chief security officer. I’m the head of the government… whatever action that is taken here is null and void. For our good people, I know you are prayerful. You have been praying for me. God will see us to the end.”
Earlier, Fubara had stated that he has done noting wrong to warrant an impeachment.
