A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Chief Bode George, has described the turmoil that engulfed the Rivers State House of Assembly on Monday as a despicable and disgraceful affront to democracy.
George who was reacting to the crisis that ensued in the Assembly following attempts by some lawmakers to impeach Governor Siminalayi Fubara which led to the removal of the House leader and the emergence of a factional Speaker, called on the party leaders to intervene and restore order before the situation escalated further.
The PDP chieftain who made the appeal on Channels Television’s current affairs programme, Politics Today, said he was unhappy at the development considering the fact that the state was a PDP state and the party leaders should do everything possible to bring every member under one roof.
