Assembly clerk disavows pro-Fubara faction, reaffirms Amaewhule as Speaker.

Emeka Amadi, the clerk of the Rivers State House of Assembly, has distanced himself from the faction of the Assembly that supports Governor Sim Fubara. Amadi emphasized that Martin Amaewhule is still the Speaker of the House.

According to the clerk, the three assembly members who are loyal to Fubara—Hon. Victor Oko Jumbo, Hon. Sokari Goodboy Sokari, and Hon. Adolphus Orubimie Timothy—were suspended on October 30, 2023. Therefore, they have no right to claim to hold any positions within the House.
