APC Speaks Out On Rivers Crisis: Fubara’s Impeachment Call And State Assembly’s StandThe ongoing crisis in Rivers State has drawn the attention of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), prompting a response from the national leadership.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

In a detailed statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, the APC clarified its stance on Governor Siminalayi Fubara’s impeachment and the status of the State House of Assembly.

The APC distanced itself from calls for Fubara’s impeachment, refuting claims made by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in a recent press briefing. Instead, the APC pointed out that Fubara’s own actions and statements are leading to his potential impeachment.

Central to the issue is Fubara’s assertion that the Rivers State House of Assembly does not exist, a statement deemed reckless and unconstitutional by the APC. The party emphasized the constitutional significance of the legislature and criticized Fubara for undermining its authority.

Furthermore, the APC addressed the legal complexities surrounding the defection of 27 House of Assembly members from the PDP to the APC. It emphasized that only a court of law can determine whether these members have vacated their seats, dismissing Fubara’s unilateral declaration regarding their status.

The statement highlighted Fubara’s disregard for the rule of law and his attempts to govern without constitutional checks and balances. It condemned his actions, including the demolition of the Rivers State House of Assembly complex, as acts of executive lawlessness.

In conclusion, the APC called on Fubara to respect the Constitution and submit to the rule of law. It warned against his continued attempts to undermine democratic institutions and urged him to govern within the framework of constitutional governance.

As the crisis in Rivers State unfolds, the statement from the APC underscores the importance of upholding democratic principles and the rule of law in Nigerian politics.
