Rivers Governor Siminialayi Fubara and his entourage could not gain access to the Assembly Quarters of the House of Assembly on Wednesday.

The Governor and some members of his executive council, arrived the quarters in the morning of Wednesday but met the gate locked.

Fubara, who wore a white outfit with a red cap, said he was at the Assembly Quarters to re-present the 2026 Appropriation Bill in line with the Supreme Court’s judgement.

Two key officials, who accompanied the Governor to the quarter, where the House of Assembly is located along Aba Road, were the Chief of Staff, Edison Ehie and the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Dr. Tammy Danagogo.

The governor could be heard saying: “Is the gate locked” before speaking on the reason for his visit.

He complained that he was at the House of Assembly quarters to re-present the 2025 Appropriation Bill in line with the Supreme Court’s judgement, but met the gate to the Assembly locked.

The Governor said he had made a lot of efforts to reach Rivers Speaker and other lawmakers to no avail.

Fubara said he also sent a letter to the Speaker for an invitation to re+present the budget but has got no reply, adding that he was only acting for the interest of the state.

The Governor said: “I came here this morning with few of my EXCO members to comply with the Supreme Court judgment. Before my arrival I have made several attempts by phone call to reach the Speaker and other members.

“I also did a letter personally which was transmitted to the Hon. Speaker for this particular invitation. But it is unfortunate that at the gate, the place is completely sealed, and there is no sign that anything is going to happen today.

“The reason why we are doing this, like I have always said is the interest of our people which is the most important thing. Well I don’t think there is anything to worry about, maybe they are working on the letter, and I expect to hear from them may be after this hour”.
