A group of federal lawmakers from opposition parties in the National Assembly known as the G60 have described the call for the impeachment of Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State as illegal.
In a statement by its spokesperson, Honourable Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere, the group says the move is a ridiculous, laughable, unconstitutional and nonsensical invitation to anarchy by 27 sacked lawmakers who ceased to be lawmakers after their illegal decampment and declaration of their seat vacant.
The Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, on Tuesday, directed its members in the state House of Assembly to commence the impeachment process against Governor Siminalayi Fubara.

The impeachment call is coming barely 24 hours after Governor Fubara said the House of Assembly, led by sacked Speaker, Martin Amaewhule, is not recognised by law.
Honourable Ugochinyere urged the Governor of Rivers State to commence prosecution against the sacked lawmakers, using the magistrate court to arraign them for impersonation to restore sanity.
