The Executive Chairman of Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of Rivers State, Gift Worlu, has said Governor Siminalayi Fubara should clear the air on the gross misconduct allegations levelled against him by the House of Assembly.
Naijaonpoint recall that 26 lawmakers, reportedly loyal to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, recently initiated impeachment proceedings against Governor Fubara and his deputy, Ngozi Odu, during plenary, citing allegations of gross misconduct.
Speaking in an interview on Channels Television, Worlu, “The Assembly members have pointed out a number of infractions.
“The point here is that the assembly exists to ensure that people who are in executive positions like myself don’t just do whatever they like. So if we are saying that we are for impeachment or we’re against impeachment, we have to put it in context.
“And for me, the context here is that the assembly members who have the responsibility to check the exercises of the executive and the governor in this case have pointed out a number of infractions.
“It is now left for the governor to answer to those questions and then clear the air. If he has not done anything wrong, then of course the impeachment will not stand. But if he has done something wrong, of course he should face the law. That is the only way we can have a sane society.”
