GOVERNOR FUBARA’S IMPEACHMENT IS GETTING A LOT OF IMPEACHMENT AS RIVER ELDERS WARN PRO-WIKE AGAINST IMPEACHING GOV. FUBARA. THEY WARNED OF SEVERE CONSEQUENCES IF THEY ATTEMP TO PROCEED WITH ANY ILLEGALITY. REMEMBER THAT THE LAWMAKERS HAVE WARNED THE GOVERNOR OF ACTING WITHOUT THE PROVISION OF THE LAW AND ALSO DEVIATING FROM THE RESOLUTION INITIATED BY THE PRESIDENT.
ALL I HAVE TO SAY IN MY OPINION IS THAT THE 27 PRO-WIKE LAWMAKERS SHOULD ALLOW GOV. FUBARA TO WORK BECAUSE THE MAN AT ABUJA WOULD ACCEPT THESE CONDITIONS IF HE WAS STILL THE GOVERNOR OF THE STATE. READ THE FULL STORY BELOW.

The river elders have warned 27 pro-wike against Fubara’s impeachment.
The council said the 27 pro-Wike lawmakers lacked the legitimacy to take any action because, according to the council, they had lost their seats by defecting from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress.
The 27 pro-Wike lawmakers had, on Saturday, threatened to revisit the impeachment proceedings against Fubara as a last resort to uphold the nation’s constitution.
Fubara had last October survived an impeachment plot by the lawmakers amid his feud with Wike, his estranged political godfather.
Following an emergency meeting held on Tuesday, the elders declared that Tinubu’s directives are deemed unacceptable and hold no legal weight.

“A review of Mr. President’s directives for the resolution of the political impasse in Rivers State showed that the directives contravene the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, which Mr. President swore to uphold at all times,” the Elders said in a communique read by former Rivers State Governor, Chief Rufus Ada George.
“The directives unilaterally suspended the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria by virtue of an attempt to reverse a court order recognizing Rt. Honourable Edison Ehie as the speaker and directing that the remainder of members of the House of Assembly constituted the quorum for legislative business.
“That the directive also contravenes the hallowed doctrine and practice of separation of powers, particularly as it affects the responsibility of the judiciary. Can Mr President or the executive arm of government overrule the decisions of the court of competent jurisdiction?
“This portends executive rascality which undermines our constitutional democracy, rule of law and good governance.
“The directives to the parties were one-sided in favour of Chief Barr. Nyesom Wike.
“The directive to re-present the budget passed and signed into law is a clear attempt to ridicule and denigrate the office of the Governor and the good people of Rivers State, including the Judiciary.
“Therefore, any resolution or directive that intends to undermine the principle of separation of powers and the rule of law is unacceptable, null and void and will be resisted, using all constitutional means at our disposal.“
