Rivers Court approves Amaechi Probe

                               

The Rivers State High Court has dismissed a suit brought before it by former Governor Rotimi Amaechi Challenging the Judicial Commision of Inquiry set up by Governor Nyesome Wike to probe his administration.

The Presiding Judge,Justice Amadi in his judgement declared that the Judicial Commission was not established to investigate the personal activities of the former governor, but to investigate previous actions of government as they affect the people of the state.

Amadi ruled that Wike, by the provisions of the law, is empowered to establish the Judicial Commission of Inquiry to investigate previous actions of government, pointing out that there is no law preventing a state government from finding out how her resources were expended.
