Former militant leader, Asari Dokubo, has said Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike should be held responsible for the demolition of the State House of Assembly.
Dokubo said Fubara must explain to the people of the state why he took such a bad decision to demolish the House of Assembly.
He insisted that the demolition was unnecessary.
In a video on his Facebook, Dokubo said Fubara’s duty is to serve the people’s interests, not personal goals.
News360 Info reports that the political tension between Wike and Fubara had led to 27 lawmakers in the state defecting from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Amid the defection, the state government demolished the complex on Wednesday.
Reacting, Dokubo said: “Whoever advised the governor to take this bad decision, the governor will have to come out and explain to the people why he decided to demolish our House of Assembly.
First it was a fire in the hallowed chambers, now it’s to demolish the House of Assembly shamelessly.
Anyone responsible for the burning of the hallowed chambers and now the demolition of the House of Assembly should be fished out; if Sim is responsible, he should be held by the Rivers people.
He has to come out and explain to the people why he demolished the House. If it’s Wike, he should also be held accountable and with whoever is supporting them.”
