Soldiers Take Over Rivers State Assembly

A detachment of soldiers has taken over the Rivers House of Assembly following the fracas that erupted there on Tuesday and continued today. The soldiers took over when two opposing youth groups numbering over 2,000, some pro-Governor Chibuike Amaechi, some against, attempted to storm the Assembly this morning.

They had disparate missions: to either prevent the five renegade lawmakers from sitting or to aid them. There was a clash between the youths and one was reportedly shot. No one knows who actually fired the shot.

The pro-Amaechi group, which is under the auspices of Ikwerre Youth Movement, IYM, was this morning led by Tony Okocha, the Chief of Staff, while the other group of youths under the aegis of Grassroots Democratic Initiative, GDI, is loyal to Nyesom Wike, the Minister of State for Education.
