Former senator, Shehu Sani, has said the Rivers State imbroglio involving Governor Siminalayi Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike can only be solved by God.
The lawmaker who represented Kaduna Central in the Senate commented on the crisis in a post on his Twitter (X) account.
Rivers State has been experiencing political crisis since Fubara assumed office, and it was reported to have started after he allegedly refused to share Rivers resources with Wike
Sani tweeted: “Rivers State has been left in the hands of God to solve the problem.”
Meanwhile, on the same matter, a Rivers State High Court in Port Harcourt, on Monday, issued an ex parte order barring the Chief Judge of the state and the Clerk of the State House of Assembly from dealing with Martins Amaewhule and 26 other lawmakers loyal to ex-governor Nyesom Wike.
Justice Jumbo Stephen ordered that the CJ, the clerk and other defendants in the suit should “not act on any resolutions, articles of impeachment or others” from Amaewhule and 26 other pro-Wike lawmakers.
“That an order of interim injunction is hereby made restraining the 31st and 32nd defendants from dealing or howsoever relating with the 1st-27th defendants as members of the Rivers State House of Assembly and from receiving, forwarding or howsoever acting on any resolutions, articles of impeachment or other defendants pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice for interlocutory injunction already filed herein.
“That the parties to this suit are hereby directed to maintain the status quo ante litem in this suit as at 5th July 2024, pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice for interlocutory injunction already filed herein.
“An order is hereby made for substituted service of the originating and other processes in this suit on the 1st-30th defendants by pasting the same at Quarters, opposite former NDDC headquarters, off Aba Road, Port Harcourt, Rivers State,” the judge ruled.
