The Rivers State House of Assembly, led by Speaker Martin Amaewhule, has taken decisive action by halting all government expenditures under Governor Siminalayi Fubara's administration. This follows the governor's failure to submit his budget proposal within a seven-day ultimatum. During a heated plenary session, the lawmakers voted to freeze the state's consolidated revenue account. Speaker Amaewhule highlighted constitutional breaches by the governor, urging immediate compliance. The budget was passed by a rival faction led by Fubara's Chief of Staff, Edison Ehie, and signed into law. The ongoing tensions between Fubara's supporters and former Governor Nyesom Wike's faction are escalating, with mediation efforts struggling to resolve the conflict. Join our expert panel, including public affairs analyst George Brown and Samuel Nwanosike, Factional Chairman of Ikwerre LGA, as they discuss this unprecedented shutdown's legal and political implications. What does this mean for governance in Rivers State? Watch now for in-depth analysis and expert insights!
