Rivers Crisis: Fubara, Lawmakers Take Fight To Assembly Quarters

 Barely 24 hours after the emergence of a factional Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Governor Siminalayi Fubara yesterday paid an unscheduled visit to the House of Assembly quarters located off Aba Road in Port Harcourt.The development comes barely 72 hours after the governor described the Rt. Hon. Martins Amaewhule-led House as non-existent.

The Amaewhule-led House has been using the multi-purpose hall of the quarters as their sitting venue following the demolition of a section of the House of Assembly complex located along Moscow Road in Port Harcourt late last year.

Speaking to newsmen, Fubara explained that his visit to the residential quarters of the State House of Assembly was to undertake an on-the-spot assessment of condition of the structures for a possible rehabilitation work to restore its status and make it liveable.

The governor said: “Is the Assembly quarters not part of my property? Is there anything wrong in going to check how things are going on there?

You are aware of the developments. We have a new speaker, and I went there to see for myself how things are. There might be a few things I might want to do there for the good of our people.”
