An explosion hit the Rivers State House of Assembly complex on Sunday night.
CHECKPOINTCHARLEY gathered that some suspected arsonists threw an explosive into the complex around 9:25 pm.
This comes amid rumours of alleged moves by some lawmakers to impeach Governor Siminalayi Fubara. It is not yet clear if former governor Nyesom Wike is behind the plot to remove Fubara.
