A heated debate broke out in the House of Representatives on Wednesday as lawmakers clashed over President Bola Tinubu’s declaration of emergency rule in Rivers State.
The lawmakers engaged in a shouting match even before the session officially commenced.
In a video trending online, two female members of the House were seen engaged in a fiery confrontation.
The emergency rule, announced by Tinubu on Tuesday, suspends Governor Siminalayi Fubara, his deputy Ngozi Odu, and all members of the Rivers State House of Assembly for six months. The move was justified by the president as a necessary step to restore order amid the ongoing political crisis in the state.
As part of the emergency measures, Tinubu appointed retired Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas as the Administrator to oversee the state during this period.
Is River State the first state to experience this in Nigeria,Abati was in this country when it happened in Ekiti during Obasanjo,it also happened during Jonathan government.
All this while what is their effort to curtail the crisis,they were all against Wike, this is the result of their support for Fubara.
Fayose warned Fubara against this, during his first day in office.
