The Chief of Staff (CoS) to Rivers State, Governor Siminalayi Fubara, Edison Ehie has claimed that he was offered money to impeach the incumbent governor.

According to Ehie: “They invited me, your son, to impeach the governor and I told them clearly, I was not interested.
“They gave me all the money that was hidden before, which I rejected. And because I refused, they conspired and declared me wanted.”
It would be recalled that in 2023, the former Chief of Staff was declared wanted by the police in connection with the invasion of the State House of Assembly.
In October 2023, an explosion rattled the state assembly building amidst reports of lawmakers attempting to impeach Fubara.
The Martin Amaewhule-led lawmakers had reportedly lodged criminal complaints against Ehie with the Rivers State Police Command regarding the invasion and arson of the Rivers State House of Assembly chambers by unidentified hoodlums.
