Governor Siminalayi Fubara presents 2024 appropriation bill before 5-man Assembly at Government House Port Harcourt

The crisis rocking the Rivers State House of Assembly on Wednesday took a new twist as Governor Siminalayi Fubara began the demolition of Assembly complex for possible renovation purpose.

BIGPEN NIGERIA (https://bigpenngr.com) reports that the demolition is coming a day after the Edison Ehie led faction of the Assembly obtained a restraining order against the former Governor Nyesom Wikes loyalists in the Assembly.

Following the development, the Governor on Wednesday morning presented the 2024 appropriation bill before rhe Ehie-led faction of the Assembly at the Government House, Port Harcourt.

About ten bulldozers were deployed to the Assembly complex around 6:am to commence the demolition exercise ordered by the Fubara’s administration.

The governor had promised to renovate the complex barely two months after fire gutted it.

Sources said the moves was a game plan by Governor Fubara to avoid impeachment by the opposing lawmakers loyal to former Governor Nyesom Wike.

Recall that on Monday, 27 out of the 32 members of the State Assembly defected from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to the All Progressives Congress, APC.
