Rivers State High Court Okays Wike’s Probe of Ex Gov Amaechi’s Administration

A Rivers State High Court, sitting in Port Harcourt on Thursday dismissed the suit filed by former governor Rotimi Amaechi challenging the setting up of a Judicial Commission of Enquiry to probe his administration.

Governor Nyesom Wike desires to probe the alleged sale of the state’s assets by the Amaechi administration, Nation reports.

Justice Simeon Amadi, who delivered the verdict on Thursday, said the commission of enquiry was not meant to probe Amaechi’s personal activities but to examine the actions of the former administration as they affect the state’s residents.
