Bonny Legislative Assembly: My Opponents Attempted To Use Aba-Made Mace To Impeach Me – Embattled Leader

-

The embattled Leader of the Bonny Legislative Assembly, Miriam Hart says she remains the Leader of the Bonny Legislature and insists she was never impeached as widely reported in the media.

In a response she sent via SMS to Kristina Reports’ enquiry about developments at the Legislative Assembly, Hart said “I remain the officially recognized and authentic elected Leader of the house and there is no rivalry to that effect”.

She asserted that some “disgruntled members of the Bonny Legislative Assembly” attempted to impeach her by using “a fake mace they purchased from Aba”.

But Princewill Christy-Wilcox, the purported newly elected Leader denied this claim, saying that "It's laughable that the impeached leader is talking about fake mace. I want to assure you that the impeachment process was followed accordingly".

"It's so unfortunate that the impeached leader does not know the relevant laws guiding the Legislative Assembly. At this point we leave it to the general public or possibly an open debate".

Penultimate week, precisely, on Tuesday, October 16, 2018, eight members of the legislative assembly announced that they have impeached her and also removed all the principal officers. They claimed this was sequel to a motion brought before the assembly by the Councillor representing Ward 2, Kingston Robert.

In her words, “I am Rt. Hon. Miriam Alawarifagha Hart, JP, the Leader, Bonny Local Government Legislative Assembly, and I want to use this medium and opportunity to inform the good people of Grand Bonny Kingdom and the entire public to disregard the so-called purported impeachment process of the disgruntled members of the Bonny Legislative Assembly”.

“I describe such act as barbaric, uncivilized and unpatriotic moves and it’s totally and vehemently condemned as I remain the authentic Leader and my dearly beloved principal officers are irrevocably committed to the services of our dear kingdom and Bonny Local Government Area at large.”

Hart assured that “the 8th Assembly, under my watch, remains very determined and committed to provide adequate and robust legislation for our people”.

The Bonny legislative strong woman maintained that the purported action to remove her from office by her colleagues was done without the knowledge and in the absence of the sergeant-at-arms, clerk of the house, and recorder.

“The unpatriotic activities of these misguided members who invaded the assembly complex without the government employed Sergeant-at-Arms, Clerk of the House, and the Recorder, but with a fake Mace even when the House has been adjourned to enable the honourable members participate in the ongoing state NAFEST events in Port Harcourt, which they, the power mongers boycotted for their desperate selfish interests.

She stated that there was no way anyone could have performed “miraculous magic” under three months to four months. But, the truth remains that if you are not a good follower, you can never be a good leader”.

The house that you said was adjourned for memebers to participate in the just concluded NAFEST was it properly adjourned until after the event? Was there a text or proper communication to the whole house that there won’t be sitting after u adjourned the house to next sitting Thursday? Why didn’t the principle officers come for their sitting? Where the 2/3 say they aren’t comfortable with you monopolized leadership why not set aside? Bonny first not oga say oga say, Bonny people are tired of one man politicking, the bye law and standing order of Bonny legislature says in the absence of all principle officers the house can still sit check it yourself. Na una sabi all we know is that 2019 in by the corner and a house divided can not stand. Instead of disgrace the party so called leadership should do the needful I am sure everyone knows the truth. Leadership that sold out the son of the soul in the just concluded House of rep primaries is that the leadership we want in Bonny?

The Senator representing Rivers South East in the Senate, Senator Magnus Abe says he can be trusted with the office of Governor of Rivers State.  He further stated that he was ready for the position and the 2019 gubernatorial  election that would usher him into the office.  Senator Abe, who said this when he visited Bonny Local Government Area at the weekend, distinguished himself from the character of the Senator representing Rivers East, Senator Andrew Uchendu.  The Gokana born former Secretary to the State Government, has been embroiled in an unending power tussle with the Minister of Transport Minister, Rotimi Amaechi, over who controls the State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC).  "I am not like Andrew Uchendu who stood before the Etche people and said he would  only run for one term. But as soon as he heard there will be indirect primaries and he has the support of the leader of the party, he went back to the secretariat and bought form fo

L-R Larry, Mina, and Quincy with His Majesty, King Edward William Dappa Pepple III, Perekule XI, Amanyanabo and Natural Ruler of Grand Bonny Kingdom. It began like any other day but when delectably dressed ladies daintily attired and resplendent in the best of Bonny traditional and other beautiful apparels began streaming into the hallowed and serene environs of the St. Stephen’s Cathedral Church, Bonny, it was obvious that something spectacular was about unfolding. The day was Monday, 31st December, 2018. Before long the cathedral’s auditorium was filled to the entrance with guests hanging outside. Then the church bells clanged away as the embodiment of piety, the Very Reverend Richard Ibituru Hart led his fellow clergy into the church hall to commence the thanksgiving service in honour of a lady of many parts, Mrs. Mina Larry Pepple.
