The House of Representatives ad-hoc committee on Rivers oversight has postponed its interactive session earlier scheduled for Thursday with the Sole Administrator of the state, Retired Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas.
The committee had earlier invited Ibas for a comprehensive engagement on his activities in Rivers after the declaration of emergency rule by President Bola Tinubu.
The indefinite postponement of the meeting is contained in a statement issued by House Spokesperson, Rep. Akin Rotimi, in Abuja on Thursday.
Rotimi said that the committee acknowledged the request for postponement made the sole administrator and was currently working to fix a new date for the interactive session.
“In the spirit of transparent and effective oversight, the committee will promptly inform the public once the rescheduled date is confirmed,” Rotimi said.
The House had on Tuesday constituted the 21-member ad hoc committee headed by Julius Ihonvbere to oversee the emergency rule in Rivers.
