The Supreme Court has dismissed an appeal by Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara challenging the leadership of the State House of Assembly.
A five-member panel led by Justice Uwani Abba-Aji ruled on Monday that Fubara must pay N2 million in damages to the Assembly and its Speaker, Martins Amaewhule.
The case was struck out after Fubara’s lawyer, Yusuf Ali, withdrew the suit.
