The Martin Amaewhule-led Rivers Assembly has suspended all expenditures of Rivers Governor Siminalayi Fubara until he re-presents his budget before the House.
The lawmakers gave the Governor a seven-day ultimatum to re-present his budget, which has expired.
Rivers House Leader, Major Jack, moved the motion to bring up a resolution alerting the House of the governor’s seven-day deadline for presenting the 2024 budget to the House.
Following consideration, the Assembly decided to shut down the Rivers State Consolidated Revenue Account, prohibiting any expenditure by Governor Fubara’s administration.
