This came as police operatives on Monday assaulted the governor by pouring him water.

Footages on social media showed the Governor was walking down the Rivers Assembly Complex escorted by supporters when he received assaults from the police officers stationed at the complex.

The complex was thrown into chaos as gunshots greeted the move to impeach the governor barely six months into his administration.
