Wetin dey happen for Rivers State no be small matter o! Goment dey shake as di House of Assembly don start serious impeachment process against di Governor, Siminalayi Fubara plus im deputy, Ngozi Odu. Dis one start for Thursday, 8th January. E be like say di political wahala don reach higher level, asf say lawmakers dey vex and don talk sey dem go continue di impeachment matter regardless of wetin happen.
For church service wey dem hold for di Armed Forces Remembrance Day, Fubara don dey try make pipo calm down, yarn sey everything go dey alright. E talk say, “Di reason why I no dey shout be say I know wetin I get and dat na God.” E no wan make anybody panic, just wan peace go reign for di state. Biko, make everybody dey chill!
Di situation don dey follow plenty wahala wey sabi dey happen since di relationship between Fubara and di former governor, Nyesom Wike, don sour like bad pepper soup. Wike wey dey run turn FCT Minister, don dey drop hints sey Fubara no dey grateful and dey break agreements wey dem don reach before. E talk sey, “Wen person make mistake, e go fit correct am, but no propaganda fit solve anything, na accountable matter dey solve wahala.”
Di lawmakers wey dey pursue di impeachment say dem no go take pressure come withdraw di matter. Dem talk sey di executive dey intimidate dem, and dem no go allow anybody stop dem from fulfilling dia constitutional duties. Dem also use di opportunity to hail di President for im peace efforts but still dey highlight sey Fubara and im deputy no dey take dem series of meetings serious.
As di press dey go on, some members of di assembly don start to call for calm and retreat on dis impeachment matter. Barile Nwakoh and Emilia Amadi don talk sey dem need to take time to reconsider di whole thing and look for peace instead. E no dey easy for dem, because everybody sabi say any wrong move fit lead to serious kpafuka for di state.
Di judiciary self don enter di matter as Rivers State High Court don drop interim injunction wey go stop di impeachment process for now. Dem gree sey di lawmakers no go fit proceed with anything related to di impeachment for di next seven days. Na wetin judges go call “temporary reliefs”. Dis one fit give Fubara plus im deputy some breathing space. E don make sense for di legal side of di whole gist.
For di meantime, Rivers people dey watch as dis political drama dey unfold. E don show sey no matter wetin dem try, if una get issues, dem go fit find common ground talk am for table. Na all of us dey part of dis goment matter. We go continue dey monitor di situation as more updates dey come, and we hope sey peace go reign in Rivers State by di special grace of God. Make we no forget sey na democracy we dey talk about.
