Senators Not Divided Over Amaechi – Anyanwu

 

Chairman Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions, Senator Samuel Anyanwu, has debunked the report that the case of former governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, has divided his committee. The committee is entertaining the petition written against the nomination of Amaechi by a group in Rivers State.

In an interview with newsmen, Anyanwu said the committee members were all part of the decisions taken on the petition brought against the ex-governor. “Everything was done in the open, we carried out our assignment in a transparent manner. We had to wait for a very long time for the author of the petition against Amaechi who came all the way from Port Harcourt,” he stated.

“We decided in our magnanimity, to take the respondent (Amaechi). The session didn’t last too long because he said the matter was in court regarding his indictment by the white paper by the Rivers State Commission of Inquiry,” the senator explained.

“Before the petitioner came we received documents from the attorney general of Rivers State accompanied with white paper indicting Amaechi. The petitioner came, made submissions and we demanded for supporting documents which he provided.

There was no disagreement among us, there was no problem. We will make sure that we present our report. Having heard from Amaechi and the petitioner, our report is ready and we are all unanimous on it,” Anyanwu said.
