Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>26 members of the Rivers State House of Assembly have withdrawn their impeachment notice against Governor Siminalayi Fubara.<\/p>\n

This was contained in the notice of withdrawal read on the floor of the house on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The lawmakers said the decision was made out of respect for President Bola Tinubu who on Monday convened a reconciliation meeting between the warring parties.<\/p>\n

The 26 lawmakers loyal to former Governor Nyesom Wike sat at the House of Assembly Complex on Wednesday morning where the decision was read out.<\/p>\n

President Tinubu on Monday brokered a peace deal between Fubara and his predecessor, Wike.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will not proceed with this impeachment process, due to respect for President Tinubu,\u201d Factional Speaker Hon. Martins Amaewhule said<\/p>\n
