The Rivers House of Assembly passed a resolution on Tuesday, urging Gov. Siminialaye Fubara to re-present the state 2024 budget and the medium-term expenditure framework for consideration.
This followed the adoption of a motion by the Speaker, Martin Amaewhu during the 90th plenary of the House at the legislators’ quarters in Port Harcourt.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Fubara presented a budget of N800 billion for 2024 to a four-man House of Assembly for approval on December 13.
The governor also signed the budget into law on Dec. 14, barely 24 hours after it was presented to the lawmakers.
However, under the peace accord facilitated by President Bola Tinubu, Fubara was expected to re-present the budget as part of conditions to end the political crisis in the state.
