Instead of keeping the matter within Nigeria, he wants an independent international investigation, saying Nigerians deserve full transparency.

The move has sparked debate. Does it reflect a commitment to accountability—or a lack of confidence in local institutions?

The timing has sparked public discussion.

This isn’t just a budget story—it’s a major political development.

Governor Siminalayi Fubara has presented a ₦1.85 trillion 2026 budget to the Rivers State House of Assembly, marking his first appearance before the Assembly since the political crisis that erupted in 2023.

For nearly three years, the state witnessed deep political divisions, parallel legislative sittings, and an ongoing power struggle. Now, both sides are back in the same chamber and working together—for the time being.

The proposed budget represents a 24.49% increase from 2025, with priorities including infrastructure, economic growth, education, healthcare, and social development.

The bigger question, however, is whether this marks the beginning of lasting reconciliation or simply a temporary political truce.

What do you think? Is this genuine reconciliation or just a temporary peace?
