Martins Amaewhule-led Assembly Issues 7 Days Ultimatum To Gov. Fubara To Re-present 2024 Budget

The Martin Amaewhule led-Rivers State House of Assembly has issued a 7 day ultimatum to Governor Siminalayi Fubara to re-present the 2024 budget to the House

This follows appeal Court ruling last week which nullified the suit by Victor Oko-Jumbo led speakership of the Rivers Assembly.

This order was issued during the first session of the pro-Wike House on Monday after a hiatus of several months

Meanwhile, two separate sittings are being held by the House faction led by Victor Oko-Jumbo and Matins Amaewhule led speakers

Recall that Fubara had previously presented the budget to the other House loyal to him, with his current Chief of Staff, Edison Ehie, presiding as Speaker.

Ehie and the pro-Fubara lawmakers passed the budget estimates, which the governor then signed into law, stating it aims to promote economic development, inclusive growth, and address socio-economic inequality in the state.
