RIVERS ASSEMBLY OVERRIDES GOVERNOR FUBARA'S ASSENT, PASSES LOCAL GOVERNMENT (AMENDMENT) BILL ... Screens and Confirms Assembly Service Commission Chairman and Members The Rivers State House of Assembly, on Monday at its 159th Legislative Sitting, has passed the Rivers State Local Government (Amendment) Bill into Law by overriding the assent of the Governor. Recall that on the 13th of March, 2024 the House passed the Local Government (Amendment) Bill and forwarded same to Governor Siminialayi Fubara for assent, which the Governor declined. Determined to perform its Constitutional duties, the Bill was represented by the Majority Leader, Hon. Major Jack and debated upon by Members. Thereafter, the House in accordance with the provisions of Section 100(5) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, as altered, which empowers the House to override the Governor, where he withholds his assent; the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Martin Amaewhule put the question, and with a two-third majority votes the House agreed to override the Governor and passed the Bill into Law. In another development, the House screened and confirmed nominees for the position of Chairman and Members of the Assembly Service Commission. Those screened and confirmed were Barr. Sampson Worlu as Chairman, Hon. Abinye Blessing Pepple, Mrs Blessing Belema Derefaka, Mr.Gbaranen Robinson and Madam Dorcas Amos as Members. Recall that on the 22nd of March, 2024 the House passed the Rivers State Assembly Service Commission(Amendment) Bill into Law, wherein the House donated back to itself the power to appoint the Chairman and Members of the Assembly Service Commission. On a sad note, the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Amaewhule announced the demise of Mr. Lucky Amadi, the husband of the honorable Member for Obio/Akpor Constituency II, Hon. Emilia Lucky Amadi, and stated that Members would pay a condolence visit to their Colleague. Signed Martins Wachukwu S. A. Media Aide To The Speaker, Rivers State House of Assembly April, 22, 2024

Not known to Law.. You can’t import Wike ideas into the constitution when it has not been amended.. These are bunch of Commendians , that’s why the governor isn’t bothered .. Let the irresponsible council members come and access funds and security na. The governor will appoint care taker committees and chairmen respectively. Heaven won’t fall. 3 Likes |
