President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has transmitted the 2025 budget proposal for Rivers State to the National Assembly, seeking approval for a total of N1.481 trillion.
The president’s request was formally presented during Thursday’s plenary session by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas.
According to President Tinubu, the fresh budget proposal became necessary due to the Supreme Court’s decision and the fact that Rivers State is currently under emergency rule.
Rivers State is currently under the administration of a sole administrator, Ibok-Ete Ibas, appointed after the suspension of Governor Siminalayi Fubara by President Bola Tinubu in March.
The suspension followed the escalation of Fubara’s political dispute with his predecessor and current FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike.
Providing a breakdown of the budget, President Tinubu said ₦324 billion would be allocated to infrastructure, ₦166 billion to health, ₦75.6 billion to education, and ₦31.4 billion to agriculture.
He further noted that the agricultural component of the budget is projected to generate about 6,000 jobs across the state. The president appealed to the National Assembly to urgently consider and pass the budget in the interest of the state and its people.
