Appeal Court Sets Aside Rivers 2024 Budget Passed By Edison-Ehie Group by SenatorCharles1(op): 3:32pm On Oct 10, 2024
The appellate court dismissed the appeal filed by the Governor of Rivers State Siminalayi Fubara on grounds that it lacked merit.

The Court of Appeal in Abuja has affirmed the judgment of the Federal High Court which set aside the N800 billion budget passed by five members of the Rivers State House of Assembly led by the Edison Ehie-led group.

The court held that Governor Fubara withdrew his counter-affidavit at the lower court in the matter and as such cannot commence an appeal in a matter he didn’t challenge at the trial stage.

Fubara should fire all his advisers. Why withdraw your case in court when you intend to fight to the finish?

He should fire all of them and get a refund.

If I were Fubara, I won't obey it and appeal it to the supreme court , looks more like kangaroo judgment as long as I am doing the right thing...

Wike Appeal court. It’s a simple case and nobody is going to do anything about it. They have defected to APC and there is no coming back. Evidence is live on camera. So those judges can go and enjoy their wicked money in peace since they told him what he wanted to hear grin

Until this corrupt judges destroy Nigeria beyond repair they won’t stop.

There is no doubt before the law that Martins is the rightful Speaker of the House of Assembly. The Appeal court had already made this clear in a previous judgement. That is why they berated the Governor today for disobeying the orders of court. Rivers State has no budget so far as far as the law is concerned and that is very worrisome. Something big will happen in that state soon but it will surprise only those who have been reasoning with emotions.

The court held that Governor Fubara withdrew his counter-affidavit at the lower court in the matter and as such cannot commence an appeal in a matter he didn’t challenge at the trial stage.

He has to start afresh again that is the meaning of the judgement

Shey these lawyers abi judges get sense so...which budget? 2025 budget or 2024 budget with about 2 months to go!

Guv Sim Fubara: do like Ngige; focus on what will benefit the interests of great citizens of Rivers State & ignore enemies of progress! Your people will adore you & fight for you. Politicians esp those in Abuja go do anything to mess up your govt. So many up & EQUIP MENZ, just in case! Take Over Completely!
