The Governor of River State, Similanyi Fubara, has expressed his readiness to face the potential outcome of the impeachment crisis in the state.

He acknowledged that being impeached, he won’t be the first nor the last.

Fubara made this statement on Monday morning in response to reports that several members of the state House of Assembly had endorsed his impeachment notice.

While addressing his supporters, the beleaguered governor also mentioned that security forces had aimed directly at him.

He added, “We woke up this morning with very troubling news. We have gone to the assembly to see what is happening for myself.”

“On my way there, I was shot at directly by the OC operation but it doesn’t matter. Somebody will die one way or the other. You die either inside your house or on the road.”

“If I’m impeached, I won’t be last to be impeached.”
