The political crisis rocking Rivers State took a fresh turn on Monday as the State House of Assembly accused Governor Siminalayi Fubara and his deputy Ngozi Odu of gross misconduct.
The development is the latest in the series of political crises that have engulfed the oil-rich state.
The lawmakers, under the leadership of Martin Amaewhule, have forwarded the notice to the Governor and his deputy.
They added that their action is in compliance with the constitution of Nigeria.
“In compliance with Section 188 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended) and other extant laws, we the undersigned members of the Rivers State House of Assembly hereby forward to you a Notice of Gross Misconduct by the Deputy Governor of Rivers State in the performance of the functions of her office,” the notice reads in part.
