The sacked 22 local government chairmen and their councillors elected under former Governor Rotimi Amaechi in Rivers State have threatened to stop the scheduled local government elections in the state. The chairmen, who were elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC, were sacked under the administration of the incumbent Governor Nyesom Wike. They stated it would be contempt of court if the state goes ahead to hold the LG polls as scheduled on the 17th of April, 2021. Speaking for the elected APC chairmen and councillors, Hon. Sogbeye Eli, said the sacked chairmen and councillors, have vowed to return to the Court of Appeal on February 1, 2021, where the appeal over their sack is pending.
