Martins Amaewhule, Speaker of the Rivers House of Assembly, stated on Thursday, January 8, that the protracted political crisis in the state is not a feud between Governor Siminalayi Fubara and Nyesom Wike, the minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

According to the Speaker, “it is the governor and the constitution.”

Amaewhule criticised Fubara for actions allegedly in violation of the Nigerian Constitution, The Punch reported.

Speaking angrily, as noted by Leadership, the Speaker described Governor Fubara as “a threat to our democracy.” He insisted that alleged constitutional breaches by the governor were being overlooked by certain elders in the oil-rich state.

He said: “Siminalayi Fubara is a mistake. He is a mistake. River state has never had it this bad.

“In the entire Nigeria, Siminalayi Fubara and Professor Ngozi Odu, these are the only two people in the office at the sub-national level that are yet to present the 2026 Appropriation Bill. The entire country. I am sure if you go to the entire West African sub-region or even Africa, you will not find any sub-national government that has not presented an appropriation bill for 2026.

“Who would believe that in this 21st century, a state like River States will not have an appropriation bill either presented or passed? Nothing is holding the governor back from presenting it. He chose not to.”

Amaewhule added: “Other governors are saying how they are receiving money, how much they received, how much they have spent. Since May 29th, 2023, when Siminalayi Fubara and Ngozi Odu were sworn in, they have never, never for once issued any statement of account of Rivers state. Not once. And the governor is boasting that they are going to call us and give us order not to follow the constitution. And people are going in the media, people that we respect, elders that we respect who are supposed to call him to order. They are going to tell him that what he is doing is good.

“Rather than cautioning the governor for his infractions on the constitution, they are clapping for him. Rather than calling on the governor, they are calling on our FCT minister, who is helping Mr President in Abuja; they are making it look like it’s a problem between the FCT minister and the governor. It is not the FCT minister and the governor. It is the governor and the constitution.”

Impeachment proceedings have already been initiated against Governor Fubara as Nigerians await the outcome of the political drama in the prominent south-south state.
