The Martins Amaewhule-ledRiversState House of Assembly has written to the state governor, Siminialayi Fubara, highlighting his actions that breached the provisions of the 1999 Constitution as amended.

The House in the letter dated July 8 and signed by its Speaker, Martins Amaewhule, sent the letter to Fubara shortly after rising from its plenary on Monday.

In the document titled, resolutions reached on the first legislative day of the second session of the 10th Rivers State House of Assembly, the House drew the governor’s attention to the 2024 Appropriation Bill saying he was yet to present it before the lawmakers.

Addressing the governor, the House said: “You are yet to present the Rivers State Appropriation Bill, 2024 in line with Section 121(1) of the 1999 Constitution as altered and in compliance with the judgement delivered on the 22nd day of January 2024 by Honourable Justice J.K Omotosho of the Federal High Court of Nigeria”.

The House insisted that the governor had yet to present the bill to a duly constituted Rivers State House of Assembly under the speakership of Amaewhule in line with Section 122 of the Constitution.

“The Rivers state government under your watch is now barred from spending funds from the Consolidated Revenue Fund of the state. The House hereby gives you the opportunity to present same within seven days from the date of this resolution,” the House said.

The lawmakers said the governor in total disregard to the provisions of the 1999 Constitution as amended and the judgement delivered by the Court of Appeal, continued to transact with the three suspended members in contempt of the orders of the court.

The House said the governor refused to direct all impostors in his government to stop parading in their purported positions.

“These infractions by you on the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 as altered, other extant laws and judicial pronouncements constitute gross misconduct ans abuse of office on your part.

“We call on you to do the needful and act lawfully without further delay and please accept the assurances of our high regards,” the House said. (Nation)
