The Nigerian Senate has constituted an 18-member committee to oversee the activities of Rivers State’s Sole Administrator, Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas (rtd.), with the goal of strengthening transparency and accountability in the state’s governance.
Led by Senate Leader Senator Opeyemi Bamidele, the committee’s role is critical in ensuring effective legislative oversight in Rivers State, according to Senate President Senator Godswill Akpabio.
The committee’s composition may be subject to review following further consultations, and the Senate President has urged them to commence their oversight duties without delay.
This move reaffirms the Senate’s commitment to upholding democratic processes in Rivers State.
