Rivers LG poll update: State Assembly summons RSIEC chief, threatens arrest

The 27 reinstated lawmakers of Rivers Assembly

Following the announcement by the Chairman of the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission (RSIEC), Justice Adolphus Enebeli (rtd), that local government election will be conducted on August 9, the state Assembly has invited him to appear before the House by Friday, March 7, 2025

The Martins Amaewhule-led Assembly also threatened to arrest him if he fails to appear before the House on the said date.

This followed a motion moved by a member, Enemi George, representing Asari-Toru Constituency 2, during Wednesday’s plenary session.

Justice Adolphus Enebeli had earlier fixed August 9, 2025, to conduct a fresh Local Government poll in the state following a Supreme Court verdict that annulled the October 5, 2024 local government poll conducted in the state by his commission.

The Assembly said it would probe the conduct of the annulled LG poll last year.

On Sunday, Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, in a broadcast assured the people that his administration will implement the Supreme Court’s verdict after carefully reviewing its Certified True Copy (CTC) which is expected to be obtained by Friday, March 7, 2025.
