The Rivers State House of Assembly, led by Martin Amaewhule, has given the state Governor, Siminalayi Fubara a 7-day deadline to resubmit the 2024 budget.
This order was issued during the first session of the pro-Wike House on Monday after a hiatus of several months.
Meanwhile, a parallel session is being held by the House faction led by Victor Oko-Jumbo.
Fubara had previously presented the budget to the other House loyal to him, with his current Chief of Staff, Edison Ehie, presiding as Speaker.
