In what seems as part of efforts to resolve the political embargo in the State, the twenty-six members of the Rivers State House of Assembly have withdrawn their impeachment notice against Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
This was contained in the notice of withdrawal read on the house floor on Wednesday.
The embattled lawmakers said the decision was made out of respect for President Bola Tinubu, who recently held a reconciliation meeting between the warring parties.
The 26 lawmakers loyal to Nyesom Wike, former Governor of the state and current FCT Minister, sat at the House of Assembly Complex on Wednesday morning where the decision was read out.
Recall that President Tinubu on Monday brokered a peace deal between Fubara and Wike.
The tension in the state allegedly stems from a power struggle between the governor and Wike.
