The suit seeking to stop the Rivers State Gov. Sim Fubara from re-presenting the N800 billion 2024 budget of the state before the Hon. Martin Amaewhule-led Assembly has been dismissed by a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja.
Justice Joyce Abdulmalik, in a ruling, also set aside the earlier interim order made on Jan. 22, directing parties in the suit to maintain a status quo pending the hearing and determination of the substantive suit.
Justice Abdulmalik held that a similar suit in the matter had already been decided by a sister court on the day the interim order was granted.
The suit was filed a member of the state House of Assembly, Oko Jumbo and five others.
