Area
Commander
Ahmed
Garba,
prevented
Rivers state lawmakers from accessing the House
of Assembly to carry out the business of passing
the Rivers State budget.
Friday, December 13th, marked the second day of
total clampdown on majority of lawmakers loyal to
the governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi while
protecting a few lawmakers led by Evans Bipi a
cousin of the first lady, Patience Jonathan.
When plastic chairs were brought for the
lawmakers to sit outside the Assembly complex, the
police refused to allow the lawmakers sit on the
chairs. This infuriated the lawmakers who then
proceeded to sit on the floor of the road (Moscow
road) leading into the Assembly. While sitting on the
road, the legislators sang solidarity and praise and
worship songs to God.
