The Rivers State Government has accused the State House of Assembly of deliberately obstructing Governor Siminalayi Fubara from implementing the recent Supreme Court judgment affecting the state’s governance structure.

Speaking at a press conference in Port Harcourt on Monday, the state Commissioner for Information, Joseph Johnson, insisted that Governor Fubara remains committed to implementing the court’s ruling, despite its unfavourable implications for his administration.

Naijaonpoint reports that the latest statement from the Rivers State Government follows an escalation of tensions between the executive and legislative arms of government.

On Monday, the Rivers State House of Assembly, led by Speaker Martin Amaewhule, accused Governor Fubara and his deputy, Ngozi Odu, of gross misconduct.

The lawmakers, loyal to Fubara’s estranged political ally and former governor, Nyesom Wike, have forwarded a formal notice of the allegations to the Governor and his deputy.

Despite the political crisis, Governor Fubara has maintained his stance on implementing the Supreme Court judgment, which reaffirmed the powers of the state government in critical governance matters.
