A traditional ruler in Rivers State, Eze Ohna Sergeant Chidi Awuse, has accused Governor Siminalayi Fubara of removing him from his position as chairman of the Traditional Rulers’ Council while he was seriously ill.
Naija News reports that Fubara removed Awuse on June 21 from his position as Chairman of the Rivers Traditional Rulers Council.
The governor accused Awuse, who was appointed by his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, of inactivity and absence of effective leadership of the council under his watch.
The monarch was subsequently replaced with the Paramount Ruler of Apara Kingdom, Eze Chike Worlu Wodo.
Speaking on the development, Awuse decried the aspersions cast on him by the governor.
He said he spent six months in critical condition.
Eze Awuse, who is from Emohua Local Government Area, spoke at the weekend during a visit from Wike.
Wike led a delegation of his political family to his palace to rejoice with him for surviving a debilitating ailment.
