High court bombed in Rivers State

A High Court in Ahoada East LGA of Rivers State
was bombed this morning Monday January 6th,
according to reports from the state.

The NastyGist Editor's reports
The bombing of the court where
Justice Charles N. Wali usually holds
court, reportedly occurred on Monday
morning a few hours before a
politically charged suit against Hon
Evans Bipi, a member of the Rivers
State House of Assembly and leader of
a group of 6 lawmakers, who has been
unlawfully parading himself as the
Speaker of the Rivers State House of
Assembly.

Justice Wali had about a month ago
ordered Bipi to stop parading himself
as Speaker of the House as the tussle
over control of the state government
between loyalists of the Presidency
and the Rivers Governor, Mr. Rotimi
Amaechi, lingers with an end in sight.

No casualties have been reported over
the bombing as at the time of filing
this report.
