A new factional Speaker has emerged in the Rivers State House of Assembly in person of Victor Oko Jumbo.
Jombo is among the four lawmakers loyal to the State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara since the political crisis that rocked the state started.
The former factional Speaker, Edison Ehie, who was the leader of the pro-Fubara lawmakers, later resigned membership of the Assembly after President Bola Tinubu’s intervention to broker peace in the feud between Fubara and his estranged political godfather, Nyesom Wike, now Minister of the Federal Capital Territory.
Ehie was later appointed Chief of Staff, Rivers State Government House, by Fubara.
Jumbo is the member representing Bonny Constituency in the state House of Assembly.
