Why we demolished Assembly complex – Rivers Govt

… says building unsafe for lawmakers

Rivers State Government has explained the reason behind its demolition of the State House of Assembly complex on Wednesday morning.

About 11 bulldozers moved into the complex on Wednesday and began demolition of the facility located along Moscow Road, Port Harcourt.

State Commissioner for Information and Communications, Joseph Johnson, made this explanation in a statement issued in Port Harcourt on Wednesday morning.

Johnson said the demolition was due to the fire that gutted the complex and destroyed property worth millions of naira, which he said rendered the facility unfit for habitation by anyone.

The Commissioner added that the state government had already provided an alternative place for the lawmakers to carry on their affairs, pending the rebuilding of the complex.

According to the statement, “The Rivers State Government says the decision to demolish and rebuild the Rivers State House of Assembly Complex was due to the structural defects which arose mainly as a result of the recent explosion and fire incident which rendered the main building unfit for human use.

“After the visit of the governor to inspect the level of damage done to the building on the day of the fire incident, it became necessary to invite professionals to advise the government on the integrity of the building.

“It would be recalled that on the night of the attack on the complex, explosive dynamites were used to attack the complex which shook it to foundation.

“There were visible cracks on the walls afterwards, and the entire structure looked frail and unsafe for legislative business

“After the assessment of the integrity of the complex, the experts warned the government that continuing to use the building in its present state would be disastrous.”

Recall l that an explosion rocked the Rivers State House of Assembly complex in October.

This occurred amid alleged moves by some lawmakers to impeach Governor Siminalayi Fubara.

The commissioner further said the government had tried all cost-saving measures towards the repair of the complex until it bowed to the superior view of rebuilding the complex into a more befitting edifice.

“In the interim, the Rivers State Government has provided an alternative venue for the House of Assembly to conduct their affairs pending the rebuilding of the complex, ” the statement added.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the unions
