I was paid to Impeach Fubara - Rivers Gov’s Aide Reveal

The Chief of Staff to Rivers State Government, Edison Ehie, on Monday alleged that he was offered money to impeach Governor Siminalayi Fubara.

Addressing a rally in Ahoada East area of the state, the former factional speaker of the State House of Assembly disclosed the purported plot to impeach the governor.

“They invited me, your son, to impeach the governor and I told them clearly, I was not interested.

“They gave me all the money that was hidden before, which I rejected. And because I refused, they conspired and declared me wanted,” Ehie said.

Recalled that last year, Ehie was declared wanted by the police in connection with the invasion of the State House of Assembly.Ehie’s revelation stemmed from the recent crisis rocking the state between Fubara and his predecessor and current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.
