The Rivers State House of Assembly chamber has been allegedly deliberately set ablaze, heightening the tension surrounding the purported plot to impeach Governor Siminilayi Fubara Fubara.
Reports indicate that the arsonist gained access to the chamber on Sunday night, igniting a destructive fire within its confines. Fortunately, the prompt response of the local fire service prevented the flames from engulfing the entire Assembly complex.
As of the time of this report, attempts to reach the Rivers State Police Command Public Relations Officer, SP Grace Iringe Koko, proved unsuccessful.
The security measures around the Assembly complex have been heightened, and firefighters are working tirelessly to contain the blaze.
