Fubara stated he disagrees with the Supreme Court judgment but is obligated to obey the law, emphasizing that his government operates within the constitutional framework.
The Supreme Court's ruling ordered the Federal Government to stop financial allocations to Rivers State until Fubara presents the budget to the pro-Wike lawmakers.
Rivers Elders advised Fubara against seeking reconciliation with ex-Governor Nyesom Wike in light of the unfavorable court ruling.
