Stop running state without approved budget – APC warns Fubara
The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State has cautioned the Governor Sim Fubara against running the state without a duly approved budget by the state House of Assembly.
The Chairman of the Caretaker Committee of the party in the state, Tony Okocha, spoke in Port Harcourt while visiting the Speaker of the State Assembly in the company of his committee.
Okocha called on Fubara to immediately represent the 2024 budget to the Assembly, while urging the executive arm to shelve unnecessary delay in presenting the 2024 Budget estimate to the Assembly.
Okocha added: “We frown at the governor’s impunity in running Rivers State without a budget. However, we remind him that it will amount to gross financial misconduct for him to continue on this dangerous voyage.
