The Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) have demanded that members of the House of Assembly resume impeachment proceedings against Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
Making this known during a Press Conference in Port Harcourt on Tuesday, the party’s caretaker Chairman, Tony Okocha, said the party will not sit back and watch the governor insult President Bola Tinubu.
He further threatened that if the Assembly members failed to restart the impeachment proceedings against the governor, he would invoke Party discipline upon them.
“It’ll be foolhardy for us to sit down and see someone way less than Mr President insult him under our very nose.
It is also annoying to see the governor espouse impunity and intimidation on a people who are members of our political party, and we stand akimbo doing nothing.”
Speaking further, Mr Okocha said, “As representatives of Mr President we won’t sit here and see the governor insult the President. We won’t sit here to see the governor declare on his own as if he’s a court to declare Assembly members’ seats vacant.”
He further threatened that if the Assembly members fail to restart the impeachment proceedings against the Governor he would invoke Party discipline upon them.
