A Rivers State High Court sitting in Port Harcourt has issued a bench warrant against former Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi; Rivers State governor-ship candidate of the All Progressives Congress at the 2023 election, Patrick Tonye-Cole; and former Commissioner for Energy, Augustine Wokocha.

The trial judge, Justice Chiwendu Nwogu, also issued a bench warrant on Chamberlain Peterside, Sahara Energy Resources Limited, NG Powers-HPS Limited, and Cenpropsaroten Management Limited.

When the matter of the alleged sales of Rivers State assets came up for plea, counsels for the defendants unanimously informed the court of their motion on non-service of court processes, but the presiding judge insisted on issuing the bench warrant.

The trial judge refused to hear the motion by the defendants. DAILY POST reports that the judge thereafter adjourned the matter until the 5th of July.

FoolaniHellman:
Amaechi really lost out bad politically, Fine there's absolutely nothing bad in following your dream of ruling Nigeria but once you lost the Ticket to Jagaban, I was expecting you to solidify your stance by working with Asiwaju without minding Wike. But you decided to work against your own party out of Bitterness for Asiwaju after the CABAL deceived you and used you! Now you're on your own... OYO :PAnyways JAGABAN needs to be a Course of Study for all aspiring politician.
