The House of Representatives says it is yet to take up the functions of the Rivers State House of Assembly because it was yet to ne notified of any crisis.
Phillip Agbese, deputy spokesman of the House in a statement said the ongoing political crisis in Rivers State was yet to be brought before the House.
According to him, until that was done, there could be little or no intervention in the interim.
“It is true that there is a constitutional backing for the National Assembly to intervene where there are established instances of crisis in a state House of Assembly that is unable to perform its functions.
“The 10th House has not been notified of any crisis. If it is not formally aware, there is nothing much we can do by way of intervention in the crisis, but it is our wish that the matter will be resolved amicably so that Rivers lawmakers can go about the business they were elected to do by their people. This is all I can say for now,” he said.
