Governor Simi Fubara has asked the Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Hon. Martins Amaewhule, for a meeting to be held on Monday, March 10, 2025, set for the presentation of the budget.
In a letter signed by the Secretary to the State Government, Tammy Danagogo, the Governor is set to discuss sundry matters.
The letter read: “I hereby write in furtherance of His Excellency’s promise stated in my letter dated 5th March 2025 to notify you that His Excellency has received the Supreme Court Judgment, and has therefore directed me to invite you and your colleagues -the Honourable members of Rivers State House of Assembly, to a meeting to discuss:
1. Provision of a befitting space for the Assembly’s sittings;
2. Payment of all outstanding remuneration or allowances of the Honourable members;
3. Presentation of Budget and sundry matters;
4. Any other matter(s), as may be necessary, to chart the way forward in the best interest of the State.
The meeting, at which the recent Supreme Court judgement will be discussed, is scheduled to take place at the Governor’s Office in the Government House, Port Harcourt, on Monday, March 10, 2025.
Following the Supreme Court judgement that resolved several matters favouring the status of the Rt.Hon. Amaewhule-led lawmakers, Fubara vowed to comply with the ruling once he received the certified true copies.
