Rivers Assembly Demands Sack Of All Fubara’s Commissioners Within 48 Hours




The Rivers State House of Assembly, led by Speaker Martin Amaewhule, has issued a directive to Governor Simi Fubara, demanding the immediate dismissal of all state commissioners within 48 hours.

In a letter obtained by Daily Post, the lawmakers also called for the removal of other appointees who were not properly screened by the Assembly.

 Additionally, they ordered Fubara to submit a fresh list of nominees for appointment as commissioners.


This latest move comes after the Assembly had earlier given the governor an ultimatum to re-present the 2025 state budget. 

The lawmakers argue that Fubara violated constitutional provisions by appointing officials without legislative approval.

The crisis deepens as the Supreme Court recently ruled that the 27 lawmakers loyal to former Governor Nyesom Wike should resume their legislative duties, further escalating tensions in the state.
