Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State has asserted that the 1999 Nigerian Constitution does not allow for the extension of tenure for elected local government chairmen. This announcement follows the governor's order for the heads of administration in the 23 local government areas to assume control after the elected council chairmen’s three-year tenure expired on Monday. Fubara made this directive in a state broadcast on Tuesday in Port Harcourt. Speaking to journalists in Port Harcourt, Fubara emphasized that the decision adheres to constitutional provisions and aims to maintain peace and order in the state. He stated, “We will fearlessly lead the way to ensure that peace continues to prevail in the state while protecting all patriotic supporters for their stand on the path of truth. “The law on local government tenure is unambiguous. The court clearly affirmed the position of the law. “The law is the law; there is no extension of the local government’s tenure in it. The court says so.” The governor pledged to protect his supporters and oppose any “grand plan to arrest” them. https://biographyinsight.com.ng/rivers-no-provision-for-lga-chairmen-tenure-extension-in-1999-constitution-fubara/ 1 Like
