Factional Speaker of Rivers State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Victor Oko-Jumbo says the State Assembly will appeal the judgment delivered by the Court of Appeal on the jurisdiction of Rivers State High Court to hear the matter on suit number PHC/1512/CS/2024, describing it as a miscarriage of justice.
Oko-Jumbo made this known on Friday at the sitting of the Assembly in Port Harcourt.
According to him, the House has directed its legal team to urgently proceed to the Supreme Court to challenge the ruling by the Appeal Court.
He said there cannot be two Houses of Assembly in Rivers State or in any State in Nigeria, adding that Amaewhule and his team in spite of all their pretences are no longer members of the Rivers State House of Assembly.
