Fubara Siminalayi, the governor of Rivers state was barred from the Assembly complex on Wednesday, which, according to the House spokesman Hon. Enemi George, was due to “his inability to formally communicate with the House.”

Putting that behind him, the governor has again formally written to the state House of Assembly to announce his

intention to introduce the 2025 budget less than eight hours after his Chief Judge was placed under investigation for

alleged age falsification.

The Governor recounted his first visit to the House in a letter to the Speaker, Martins Amaewhule, titled Notice of

Presentation of Rivers State 2025 Budget to Rivers State House of Assembly.

“You may recall my failed visit to the Rivers State House of Assembly on Wednesday, 12th March, 2025, for the

presentation of the 2025 Rivers State Budget in compliance with the judgement of the Supreme Court of Nigeria.

“As you know, the planned presentation of the said budget could not take place because my entourage and I were

locked out at the gate and denied entry into the premises despite the prior delivery of a soft copy of the notice to you

following the failure of the Clerk to accept the hard copy from us.

“Recall further that before this unfortunate incident, the House issued a 48-hour ultimatum to present the 2025

budget even when we were yet to be served with the certified true copy of the judgement and accompanying enrolled

orders,” he said.

Governor Fubara informed the Speaker in the letter that “we were simply complying with both the order of the

Supreme Court and the request of the Rivers State House of Assembly when we came to present the 2025 budget on

the 12th of March, 2025.

“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.”

It is therefore left to be seen if the House will have the courtesy to respond to the letter giving the long time frame for

the presentation of the budget.
