The Rivers State House of Assembly has cleared caretaker committee chairmen and members into 22 out of the 23 local government areas of the state.
The development is coming on the heels of the sacking of elected council chairmen by the Federal High Court in Port Harcourt on Thursday.
Members of the House began the screening of those nominated to man various local government areas at about 4.45pm on Thursday.
The legislators had gone into a closed-door session for about four hours before getting into the business of the day (screening).
Speaker of the Assembly, Mr. Ikuinyi Ibani, told members of the House that the State Governor, Chief Nyesom Wike, had sought a leave of the House to screen and confirm the nominees.
