Rivers Assembly loyal to Wike tackles Gov Fubara for establishing investment agency

The Martin Amaewhule-led Rivers State House of Assembly has declared the recently constituted Rivers State Investment Promotion Agency by Governor Siminalayi Fubara as illegal.

The House, loyal to Minister Nyesom Wike, also stated that all appointments made by the governor related to the board were not recognized by law.

At its 41st sitting, held at the Assembly’s official quarters in Port Harcourt on Thursday, the House asserted that there was no law permitting the creation of the agency, nor has there been any communication to the House on the matter.
