BREAKING: We’ve moved on, issue of Wike’s Lawmakers “dead and buried” — Fubara declares
Fubara has declared the issue of lawmakers loyal to Wike dead and buried, insisting that the State has only one House of Assembly.
Governor Siminalayi Fubara, on Monday, presented the 2025 budget proposal to a four-member Rivers State House of Assembly led by Honourable Victor Oko-Jumbo.
The budget allocated N462,254,153,418 to recurrent expenditure and N678,088,433,692 to capital projects, bringing the total appropriation to N1,188,962,739,932.
On Thursday, Governor Fubara signed the N1.18 trillion appropriation bill into law at the Government House in Port Harcourt, just 72 hours after presenting it to lawmakers.
Speaking after the budget signing, Fubara stated that his administration is no longer concerned with the division within the Rivers State Assembly.
“We have one assembly, and that assembly is headed by Honourable Victor Oko-Jumbo. As far as I’m concerned, we have moved on. The matter of the lawmakers who decamped from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress, APC, is already dead and buried,” he said.
