Pro-Wike lawmakers issue ultimatum to gov Fubara

The Martin Amaewhule-led faction of the Rivers house of Assembly has issued 48 hours ultimatum to Governor Siminalayi Fubara to present the 2025 appropriation bill.

The lawmakers loyal to the immediate past Governor of the State and MInister of Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike issued the ultimatum during plenary on Monday.
