The Rivers State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic
Party, PDP, has described the resolution by lawmakers loyal to Governor Rotimi
Amaechi on the Nigeria Centenary celebration as illegal and does not represent
the position of Rivers people.
PDP in a statement by Jerry Needam, Special Adviser,
Media to the State Chairman, Bro Felix Obuah, which was obtained by SHOWBIZPLUS strongly maintained that all sittings,
resolutions and decisions of members of the Rivers State House of Assembly
loyal to Governor Rotimi Amaechi, outside the Hallow Chambers of the Assembly
remain illegal, unconstitutional, criminal and obviously in default to an
existing Supreme Court judgment.
The Party described comments on Nigeria at 100 years
by lawmakers loyal to Governor Amaechi as hollow, null and void and of no
effect.
The PDP boasted that no such sitting and resolutions
outside the Hallow Chambers of the Rivers State House of Assembly would stand
in the long run.
While urging Rivers people and Nigerians to
discountenance such announcements, resolutions, sittings and directives from self-seeking
lawmakers who desperately want to share among themselves Rivers resources, the
PDP reaffirms its commitment to end the era of impunity, rascality and lawlessness
in Rivers State.
The Party described as one capable of provoking public
umbrage that a few lawmakers loyal to Governor Amaechi will continue to deceive
the people with phantom sittings that have no legal backing nor impact the
lives of the People in any positive light.
The Party commended the other lawmakers led by the
Speaker, Rt. Hon. Evans Bipi, who have remained steadfast to the collective
will of the people and refused to be bribed by Governor Amaechi.
