The Rivers State House of Assembly has issued a warrant of arrest for the Chairman of the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission (RSIEC), Justice Adolphus Enebeli (retd), to appear before it.
The Martins Amaewhule-led Assembly issued the arrest warrant on Monday during plenary, after the expiration of its 72-hour ultimatum for the RSIEC Chairman to appear before it.
It should be recalled that a Port Harcourt based lawyer, Kenneth A Amadi, has issued a pre-action notice to the House over the 48 hour ultimatum it had given to the Electoral Chief to appear it, arguing that the law provides that not less than seven days ultimatum was required for such an ultimatum.
The Amaewhule-led Assembly had vowed to probe the conduct of Enebeli regarding the conduct of the annulled LG poll last year.
