In a statement issued on Sunday and signed by Dr. Enemi Alabo George, Chairman of the House Committee on Information, Petitions, and Complaints, the Assembly claimed it had received credible intelligence regarding the purported schemes. The statement noted that those allegedly involved were fully aware of constitutional provisions, including Section 272(5), which grants the Federal High Court jurisdiction over questions about the tenure of state governors or assembly members, and Section 188(10), which restricts courts from entertaining proceedings relating to the actions of the House.
The Assembly further highlighted previous judicial pronouncements that invalidated similar ex-parte orders by Rivers State High Courts, stressing that any attempt to circumvent the law would be improper. Members were urged to exercise restraint and adhere to constitutional processes, responding directly to the Notice of Allegations of Gross Misconduct rather than relying on external courts or media campaigns to challenge the Assembly.
The statement concluded by reaffirming the Assembly’s commitment to the Constitution and the rule of law, emphasizing that any attempts to subvert legal procedures would be resisted.

Aisha Yesufu, a Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) senatorial aspirant for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has alleged that the party’s primary election was manipulated by certain leaders.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
In a lengthy post on her account, the activist-turned-politician claimed the exercise was conducted behind closed doors, describing it as having a “predetermined outcome dressed in procedural formalities.” She further stated that after being “repeatedly postponed,” the election venue was “changed at the last minute.“
Aisha asserted that the party’s guidelines were not followed, lamenting that the process lacked justice and fairness.
She wrote, “A delegate-based process was introduced to be conducted at a central location, replacing the direct primaries that were supposed to be held at Local Government headquarters. When the moment came, the contest was not decided by delegates in the open; it was affirmed in a closed room, away from the people whose voices it was supposed to reflect.“
She continued, “The party will indeed go on to release numerous statements claiming the Abuja FCT primaries were free and fair. They are entitled to their voice, but the facts that transpired, when litigated by conscience and the guidelines of the Electoral Act, do not reflect justice and fairness.”
