Breaking: Rivers Assembly blocks Fubara for spending 

The Rivers Assembly, led by Martin Amaewhule, has blocked Governor Siminalayi Fubara from spending state funds until he resubmits his budget to the lawmakers.

According to report, the lawmakers issued a seven-day deadline to Governor Fubara to resubmit his budget, which has now elapsed.

Rivers House Leader, Major Jack, introduced a motion to prompt the House to take action on the governor’s delayed budget presentation, which was originally due within the seven-day timeframe.

Following deliberations, the lawmakers decided to put a hold on the Rivers State Consolidated Revenue Account, effectively halting all spending by Governor Fubara’s administration.
