The Rivers state chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has reacted to media reports that a court injunction was secured to stop the Senate from screening Rotimi Amaechi as a ministerial nominee.

In a statement issued in Port Harcourt on Thursday by its publicity secretary, Chris Finebone, the APC said the report was false, and should be disregarded.

“Again, because we are aware of the desperation of the PDP and Mr. Livingstone Wechie on this matter, we have nonetheless carried out a search at the High Court Registry in Rivers state, and no indication that such order exist at the High Court of Rivers, except if such order is given to Mr. Livingstone Wechie in the sitting room of a Judge, which we know that no right thinking judicial officer will do so, especially at this time that the National Judicial Council is desirous of sanitising the Judiciary,” the statement read.

According to the APC, the State High Court has no power or jurisdiction under the Nigerian Constitution to determine any matter that relates to the duties and functions of the Senate

“The distinguished and Honourable Judges of the Rivers State High Court are fully aware of this Constitutional provision. We strongly believe that none of them would be drawn into such level of judicial rascality or abuse of office, no matter the inducement or incentive,” the party added.
