Rivers state Commissioner for Information, Joe Johnson, on Wednesday , October 30 said;, “When the trial Judge refused to add the 23 Council Chairmen as parties, declined the State’s request to change its lawyer, and overruled our jurisdiction objection, it was evident, we saw it coming ” he stated.

Johnson revealed that the state government had appealed the decision, expressing confidence that the Court of Appeal would overturn the ruling.
