    Rivers crisis: ‘Don’t sign those bills’ – Eze tells Fubara as 27 lawmakers accord immunity to themselves

    A former National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, nPDP, Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, has lambasted the Martin Amaewhule-led 27 lawmakers of the state assembly for passing a bill according to immunity for themselves.

    According to Eze, this particular act by Wike’s loyalists showed that they are ignorant of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

    He said passing three bills by the House of Assembly exposes them not only as being selfish but as undemocratic elements under a curse.

    The lawmakers had passed the three bills, which include: The Rivers State House of Assembly (Powers and Privileges) Bill, 2025, that seeks to grant the House powers, privileges, and immunity to perform its legislative duties; the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission, RSIEC, Bill, 2025, which seeks to repeal the existing State Electoral Law of 2018 and re-enact a new one to provide for the establishment, composition, and functions of the Commission in line with the Electoral Act of 2022 and the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; and the Rivers State Local Government Bill, 2025, which seeks to repeal the State’s Local Government Laws of 2018, 2023, and 2024 and to re-enact a new Local Government Law that will be in sync with contemporary laws in the administration of the Local Government Councils.

    This move by the lawmakers, Eze said, has shown that they are bathing in the ocean of trepidation and have a myopic grasp of the wordings and letters of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, as amended.

    He said, “For the House to seek immunity in order for them to carry out their clandestine duties shows they either don’t understand the Constitution that granted immunity only to the President, Vice President, Governors, and their Deputies, or they have become democratic despots in the making.”

    Eze urged Governor Fubara not to assent to any of these laws that are inimical to the emancipation and development of the state.

    Eze noted that an Assembly that blocked a governor from presenting the state budget, in line with a judgment of the Supreme Court, is still the one that sat somewhere and passed self-serving bills to satisfy their political ego.

    “Blocking Governor Fubara from presenting the state budget, passing three inimical and self-serving bills, and adjourning indefinitely shows they are contemplating an impeachment. Let’s see how this will happen in Rivers State.

    “Imagine what is happening under the watch of Bola Tinubu as President of Nigeria. The political crisis in Rivers has continued unabated due to the support Wike is getting from President Tinubu.

    “Without mincing words, Wike and his rampaging ‘yes-sir’ lawmakers are navigating their ways through the body language of Tinubu.

    “How can the rule of law, which President Tinubu has insisted should take preeminence, apply only to Fubara while the same maxim is not applicable to the erratic lawmakers?” Eze submitted.
