Fubara hails Wike on 56th birthday amid Rivers crisis.
Siminalayi Fubara, the governor of Rivers State has congratulated his predecessor, Nyesom Wikeon his 56th birthday.
The sent his birthday message to Wike, who is the minister of Federal Capital Territory (FCT) on Wednesday, December 13, amid the crisis rocking the Rivers State House of Assembly.
The governor wrote in a birthday post on his verified X page: “Your Excellency, my dear wife and I, and the good people of Rivers State, join your family and friends to facilitate you on this day.”
About two months after a fire destroyed the Rivers State House of Assembly Complex, the state government dismantled it on Wednesday under heavy security.
Governor Siminalayi Fubara led a convoy of around ten bulldozers transported on heavy-duty flatbed lorries onto the Assembly grounds at roughly 6:45 a.m. to begin the demolition exercise.
At the same time as the demolition was happening, the governor subsequently gave the Edison Ehie-led committee the N800 billion 2024 budget projections in Government House.
The court acknowledged Ehie as the Speaker of the House and prohibited Martins Amaewhule from posing as the speaker.
Present at the budget presentation were members of the House loyal to Ehie. None of the members who recently moved from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) was in attendance.
The crisis in the 32-member Assembly had begun as a result of a rift between Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, who is now the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja
