  • In the latest request, Fubara explained that the apex court had instructed all arms of government to exercise their power within the confines of the Nigerian laws.

Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State has proposed a new date for the presentation of the 2025 budget to the State Assembly.

The development is contained in a new letter written to the Martins Amaewhule-led State House of Assembly requesting to re-present the 2025 budget.

Fubara said his action is in adherence to Supreme Court judgement and in the interest of the people, noting that the people and the goodness of the State should take priority over political crisis.

In the letter dated March 13 and addressed to the speaker, Amaewhule, the governor proposed Wednesday, March 19, 2025 as a new date to re-present the controversial budget.

He, however, said the lawmakers may pick any other date convenient for them.

Recall that Governor Fubara, who was at the Assembly Quarters in Port Harcourt on Wednesday to re-present the budget, was denied access to the the facility.

In the latest request, Fubara explained that the apex court had instructed all arms of government to exercise their power within the confines of the Nigerian laws.

“The Supreme Court has directed that all arms of government should exercise their powers and perform their duties within the ambits of the Constitution and ordinary laws of our country, and this we must do to end the lingering stalemate and advance the progress of our state and the well-being of our people.

“No matter the depth of our differences, we believe the interests of the state and our people should take priority over political conflicts.

“Against this background, it is my pleasure to again notify you, Mr. Speaker, of my desire and intention to present the 2025 Budget to the Rivers State House of Assembly on Wednesday, 19th March 2025, by 11.00 a.m. or any other date within March 2025 that you may consider convenient.

“Thank you for the kind consideration of my request by the House, and please accept, Mr. Speaker, the assurance of my highest regards”, the letter added.
