Amidst Rivers crisis lawmakers ask DSS to probe CJ over age falsification

Rivers State House of Assembly has called on the Department of State Services to investigate the Chief Judge of the State for alleged age falsification.
This was the subject of plenary on Thursday at the Assembly following the presentation of some documents to the assembly by the leader of the House, Hon Major Jack.
Afterwards the Deputy Speaker, Hon Dumle Maol raised an allegation against the Chief Judge of the state, Simeon Amadi.
He said , “These document before me simply say that the Chief Judge of the state, Justice Simeon Amadi falsified his age in service. Mr Speaker, that is a very serious allegation, and I do hope that this House takes legislative notice.”
The House debated on it and resolved to write a letter to the Director of the DSS to do its investigation and revert to the House on their findings.
In his remarks, the Speaker, Martin Amaewhule called for an investigation into the alleged age falsification against the state chief judge.
He said, “The documents are only suggesting a case of age falsification by the honourable Chief Judge of the state, Simeon Amadi. What it means is that there has to be an investigation to that effect.”
After a voice vote, the House eventually agreed to write the DSS to investigate the age falsification allegation against the Chief Judge.
