Amid rising political tension in Rivers State, the Ijaw National Congress INC and its youth wing, the Ijaw Youth Council IYC, have called on the Rivers State House of Assembly to halt ongoing impeachment proceedings against Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
Speaking on Thursday, INC President, Prof. Benjamin Okaba, described the impeachment attempt as "not a matter of the Ijaw nation but of democracy," urging all defenders of democratic principles to resist what he termed an unfortunate development.
