The Rivers state government has
filed fresh charges against former leader of the Rivers state House of
Assembly, Chidi Lloyd.
Chidi Lloyd is slammed with fresh
charges of malicious damage of the Mace of the Assembly and Affray on July 9,
2013.
In the new charges filed by the
Director of Public Prosecutions in the State Ministry of Justice, Ibikiri
Otorobio, Chidi Lloyd is accused to have violated sections of the State
Criminal Code.
The Charge Sheet obtained by
DAILY POST shows that some members of the House of Assembly including Michael
Chinda, Martins Amaewhule, Victor Ihunwo and Kelechi Nworgu are among fifteen
others pencilled down to testify against the Chieftain of the APC in the state.
The Charge sheet also indicates
that the Chief Security officer of former Governor Rotimi Amaechi, Tony Nwulu
allegedly aided Chidi Lloyd to injure a fellow lawmaker, Michael Chinda.
“That Honourable Chidi Lloyd on
or about the 9th day of July, 2013 at the Rivers state House of Assembly
Complex, Moscow Road, Port Harcourt on the Port Harcourt judicial Division,
wilfully did unlawfully destroy and damage the Legislative Mace, property of
the Rivers state government,” the Charge read in part.
Recall that the Rivers state
government had filed murder charges against Chidi Lloyd which was later
dropped.
In the meantime, the former
leader of the Rivers state House of Assembly, Chidi Lloyd is yet to react to
the fresh charges.
