Azubuike Wanjoku
The International Society for Social Justice and Human Rights (ISSJHR) and the Ikwerre Youth Movement International (IYMI), have cautioned the Rivers State House of Assembly over the suspension of Azubuike Wanjoku.
Chancellor of ISSJHR, Omenazu Jackson, Secretary of IYMI, Marshal Chuku and its National Publicity Secretary, Dike Bekwele, said the suspension of Wanjoku, who represents Ikwerre Constituency was malicious and aberration of the democratic process.
Describing the House action as draconian and against democratic institution, they said the act does not show maturity., adding that in a democratic settings, individual opinions should be allowed.
“All the House should have done was to note Wanjoku’s opinion and not suspend him. This is a display of rascality,” they said.
Jackson, therefore, urged the house to allow democracy to flourish, saying a situation where the Rivers State House of Assembly returns to crisis and chaos was not good.
