This is what we have been trying to enlighten wailers but they have refused to learn, even the NBA who are supposed to be learned are acting like a road side charge and bail lawyers because of N300 million bribe they collected from Fubara.
The constitution empowered the President to exercise extraordinary measures in a state of emergency and the extraordinary measures can be interpreted to mean suspending the Governor and the Legislative house of the state as deemed fit by the President. However, only the Supreme Court can interprete what the extraordinary measures means. Those road side charge and bail lawyers should instead be enlightening the masses to await the SC verdict on the case rather than taking sides and making ignorant conclusion.

Go to court

Waiting for the Supreme Court's verdict is like waiting for Tinubu's verdict on this matter. If you know , you know.

Corrupt Reps cannot speak for rivers state, neither can the less the 6months and even if they must return it them it will be to the democratically elected governor when he returns.

This is akin to collecting under false pretence. NBA will go again to collect from Enugu, leave Enugu to Akwaibom to collect. That is a fraudulent act. If they are protesting the state of emergency in rivers then they should wait till Fubara is reinstated and host in Rivers. 300M is a lot to be giving as gift rather it should be spent on skills acquisition for the citizens of the state

NBA must return that money. How can you collect money from Rivers and go spend it in Enugu, collect another one from Enugu Government and return Rivers money. And this hypocrisy from NBA is very funny, same NBA criticizes Judges for receiving houses from Wike but they themselves are receiving money from Fubara, Lol. What a funny hypocritical and double faced organization.



-Kiss the truth!

NBA will never refund that money...

Rivers State should go to court

Bros! Go to court. Are your colleagues not there?
DesChyko: 9:59am On Apr 18
I honestly don't understand all these media furore. Were the NBA not clear when they said to go to court? Why are the supposed government arms (military and in this case, legislative) averse to using the legal means to recover the gift?

Return which money, and to whom?

The Rep member, Mr Solomon Bob seems completely disconnected from the facts. It was simply a gift, not a hosting right.

It's quite funny how convenient it is that the Rep member is urging the sole to use "every constitutional means" to retrieve a gift...the same sole who isn’t even recognized by the Nigerian Constitution



Was the 300m "gift" from Fubara's pocket or state government undecided

You're just a hater and not from Rivers state.

Tell your criminal NBA to refund the money.

Real talk
The statement below is what I love most.

He said the refusal to refund the money was “unreasonable” and a “proof that they (NBA) were engaged in a relationship of compromise with Fubara”.

Den of thieves.

Op is mischievous.

Misleading information


Not House of Reps.

Instead a wike loyalist in the house talking nonsense.

Nairaland is becoming too bias

NBA trying to be smart. They’ll drag the matter until the tenure of Sole go expire, then they’ll reschedule the next meeting to Rivers.



By then they'd need another money and Rivers State would be manipulated or cajoled to give them more since Rufai oseni said that the 300m won't be enough.

I wonder why this has been news for sometime now. Wike will give money it's not any issue but the one Sim gives is a contention.



It wouldn't have been in the news or an issue and no one would have known that the NBA received a whooping 300m for a governor if they didn't move the conference from Rivers state.

Only if it was from Fubara's pocket but if it's the state government money which I believe then they should return it back to the state.
