Rivers Assembly moves to investigate Chief Judge over alleged age falsification

The Rivers State House of Assembly has initiated plans to investigate the state’s Chief Judge, Justice Simeon Amadi, over allegations of age falsification.

This move comes amid the ongoing political crisis in the state.

The investigation adds another layer to the intense power struggle between the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, and Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, as both leaders continue to battle for political control of the oil-rich state.

While details of the allegations against Justice Amadi remain unclear, the Assembly’s decision could have significant legal and political implications. More developments are expected as the probe unfolds.
