The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State has urged Governor Siminalayi Fubara to either resign or face impeachment. This call came in response to Fubara’s invitation to a breakfast meeting with the 27 pro-Wike lawmakers at Government House on Monday.
Rivers APC Chairman Tony Okocha described the invitation as a “Greek gift.” He emphasized how the Governor has disrespected President Ahmed Tinubu since the crisis began in 2023, even disregarding court judgments with impunity.
Okocha stated, “The invitation to the lawmakers is a Greek gift. The Supreme Court’s judgment is final, and there is nothing anyone can do about it. The only option available to the Governor now is to resign or be impeached.”
While addressing questions from journalists regarding the Governor’s invitation, Okocha said, “My response to the Greek gift the Governor is attempting to extend to the 27 lawmakers is that it is not within the law and is already belated.
“It is sheer stupidity to challenge one’s fate, like a small bird taking on its god in a fight. We have repeatedly told the Governor that bringing insect-infested firewood to his house is like inviting lizards to a feast.”
