A five-man panel of the Supreme Court, led by Justice Uwani Abba-Aji, has dismissed an appeal filed by Rivers Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, challenging the leadership of the Rivers House of Assembly under Speaker Martin Amaewhule.

Delivering the ruling, Justice Abba-Aji imposed a cost of ₦2 million against Governor Fubara, payable to the Rivers Assembly as the first respondent and Speaker Martin Amaewhule as the second respondent.

The court’s decision to dismiss the appeal followed the withdrawal of the suit by Fubara’s legal counsel, Yusuf Ali.

With this ruling, the leadership structure of the Rivers Assembly under Amaewhule remains intact.
