The political face-off between the Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, and the state House of Assembly deepened on Friday as the governor’s plan to re-present the 2025 Appropriation Bill to the lawmakers appeared to be failing.
Fubara had on Thursday written a fresh letter to the House informing the lawmakers of his intention to re-present the 2025 Appropriation Bill for consideration and approval.
The governor, in the letter dated March 13 and addressed to the Speaker, Martin Amaewhule, said he intended to present the budget on Wednesday, March 19, 2025 or any other day in March that the House might deem fit.
