Gov Fubara presents 2024 budget to five-member Rivers Assembly

Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, on Wednesday, presented the 2024 Appropriation Bill to the state House of Assembly.

Governor Fubara made the presentation during a plenary constituted by only five members of the House loyal to him.

This development is coming a few moments after the state government commenced the demolition of the House of Assembly complex.

The 27 lawmakers were not around when the Governor presented the budget on Wednesday.
