A lawyer has identified a significant error in the impeachment notice served in Rivers State, saying the document referred to the governor as “madam,” despite the officeholder being male. The legal expert argued that such a mistake undermines the credibility of the notice.

According to the lawyer, proper legal procedures require accuracy in official documents, and misidentifying the governor could be seen as a procedural flaw that may affect the impeachment process. He said this issue raises questions about the validity of the notice.

The expert also highlighted that impeachment is a serious legal procedure that demands strict adherence to rules. Any mistake, even in the way the governor is addressed, could lead to legal challenges or delays in the process.

Finally, the lawyer urged stakeholders to carefully review all legal documents before taking action. He stressed that respecting proper procedure is essential to avoid unnecessary conflicts and ensure that governance matters are handled correctly.
