The Rivers State House of Assembly has begun impeachment proceedings against Governor Siminalayi Fubara, amid tensions with Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike, who has criticized Fubara's adherence to the All Progressives Congress (APC). Critics argue that the Assembly, dominated by Wike's allies, is misusing impeachment for political purposes, potentially eroding public trust in governance and challenging President Bola Tinubu's authority. The situation may have far-reaching implications for the integrity of federal institutions.
