The Governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara on Thursday visited the Rivers State House of Assembly quarters amid tight security.
Top Society reports that Fubara arrived the quarters where the Martin Amaewhule-led legislators meet.
The governor said he was at the place as the governor of the state. He, however, took a three-minute walk around the premises before leaving.
His visit comes at the wake of a fresh crisis rocking the Rivers State House of Assembly.
Recall that some lawmakers had on Wednesday elected the member representing the Bonny constituency Victor Oko-Jumbo as their Speaker
Oko-Jumbo, who is said to be the new speaker for the entire 32-member Assembly, was said to be elected at 10 am during plenary on Wednesday, in line with the Standing Order of the House.
Oko-Jumbo was one of the four lawmakers loyal to Fubara in the wake of the political crisis in the state.
They had at the time of the crisis elected Edison Ehie as the speaker but the latter later resigned from the State Assembly, and was appointed the Chief of Staff to the Governor.
It was not clear how many lawmakers were present during the plenary that produced Oko-Jumbo as speaker.
