Fubara signs N1.1tn 2025 budget into law

 

Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has signed the ₦1.1 trillion 2025 Budget into law

Fubara, in a speech after signing the bill into law on Thursday, January 2, 2025, thanked the Victor Oko-Jumbo-led State Assembly for doing a good job.

The governor insisted that the only House of Assembly existing in the state was the one led by Oko-Jumbo.

The governor made this assertion while signing the 2025 Appropriation Bill, amounting to ₦1.1 trillion, into law, a week after submitting it to the Oko-Jumbo-led Assembly.

Fubara declared that Martins Amaewhule and 26 other members who defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) seize to be recognised as legislators, despite their recent efforts at recanting their actions.
