BREAKING: Rivers Lawmakers Block Fubara from Presenting Budget Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, was denied access to the state's lawmakers' temporary legislative quarters, where Speaker Martins Amaewhule and 27 lawmakers convene. Fubara had arrived to present the 2025 Rivers State budget, as mandated by the Supreme Court judgment. However,... the main entrance to the complex, located on the Port Harcourt and Aba expressway, was locked, preventing his entry. At the scene, Governor Fubara revealed that he had formally communicated with Speaker Martins Amaewhule through a letter and had also reached out to him, his deputy, and other lawmakers via phone calls since the previous day, but received no response.show more

This is the pure handwork of wike. Fubra should should dare the gods let's see whether heaven will fall. This nonsense has to stop. Who's Wike sef. Can Wike allow this rubbish to happen to him if he is governor. I attribute this nonsense to supreme court.

It's good to see fubura trying to comply and implement the supreme court judgement but pro wike lawmakers has now decided to frustrate him they are only exposing themselves to the world of their true intentions. Let's now see what they will hold on to and use to impeach fubara.

Biden came in to office claiming Hunter's laptop didn't exist. He's leaving office giving him a pardon for everything that was on it.

It is left for Rivers people to do the needful. Those 27 "ex-lawmakers" have homes. They have family members, they eat food, they drink water, they sleep at night and they're not more important than the millions of affected Rivers people.

12/03/2025 Your Excellency, Governor Siminalayi Fubara @SimFubaraKSC The peace and stability of Rivers State must never be compromised. The 24 legislators attempting to ignite discord should be handled decisively, yet lawfully. You are the duly elected leader of this state, and under no circumstances should you allow anyone to bully you or drag Rivers state into chaos. Tonight, it is imperative that the gate they have barricaded your re-presentation of the 2025 Appropriation Bill be removed. That space should immediately be repurposed—either as a temporary refuse site to maintain environmental order or as a primary health center to serve the people. The citizens of Rivers deserve development, not political theatrics. To prevent further disruptions, relocate these 24 legislators to secure and quiet hotels, dispersed across different locations in the state. Their role is to legislate, not to incite disorder. If they are truly committed to governance, they will perform their duties regardless of location. Simultaneously, a formal letter should be dispatched to the Supreme Court, confirming your commitment to obey its directive by re-presenting the 2025 Appropriation Bill. However, document clearly that when you attempted to do so, the legislators themselves locked the gate and refused to convene. Let it be known that you remain compliant with the law while they obstruct governance. Finally, refute—firmly and unequivocally—the false narrative that the Rivers State Assembly Complex was demolished to prevent sittings. The truth remains that an explosion rendered the structure unsafe, and to protect lives, it was removed. This was an act of responsibility, not political maneuvering. Your Excellency, stand strong. The people of Rivers stand with you. The state’s progress must never be held hostage by a few. Yours sincerely, Preacher Writing from a construction site in Newport

This is absolutely not right....fubara should behave like wike himself when he was governor. You dare not do this to wike!!!

Is it only the Rivers State Governor that should obey the judgement of the Supreme court? What's there to do for the legislature in the judgement? It seems like a judgement that is paid for by a party...

Why did Fubara allow the lawbreakers access to the assembly knowing fully well that the supreme court did Wike’s bidding in that ruling?

He should go ahead and demolish the Assembly complex. Fubara too full, too foolish aswear. Did Obaseki not remove the roof of the Edo assembly? Why is an Ijaw man this dunce?

Western countries are just laughing 😆 at Nigeria 🇳🇬 politicians, what a shame Wike end will be so bad, nothing last forever

i think Fubara is too simple against the demons he his dealing with
