In a statement to newsmen on Monday, by Simeon Nwakaudu, Special Assistant to the Governor on Electronic Media, the removal of Noryaa followed his alleged indictment in cult-related activities within his kingdom.

The governor assured that his administration remained committed to the promotion of peace and security across Rivers State.
