A senior lawyer, Ebun Adegboruwa, SAN, has called on President Bola Tinubu and the National Assembly to render to Nigerians a report of the activities of retired Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas when he [Ibas] served as the Rivers State administrator for six months.

Adegboruwa, who spoke on Channels Television’s The Morning Brief on Thursday, said that Rivers, being one of the richest states in Nigeria, has resources, and therefore, Ibas should explain how he managed the resources.

“Additionally, based on Section 305, those who have exercised oversight functions during the emergency period — the President, the Federal Executive Council, the National Assembly — should render a report to the people of Nigeria.

“I mean Rivers is one of the richest states in Nigeria, there are resources there. Somebody acted for six months as a single individual.

“What is his report? What did he do with the resources? What is the state of the handover? Those matters should become transparent to guide us.

“How did he manage the resources of Rivers State? What were the decisions that he took? What did he leave behind?

“Nigerians are entitled to know from the President, who was exercising oversight responsibility over the sole administrator from the National Assembly, in terms of accountability and transparency, how much was received within this period, and what it was used for,” the lawyer stated. (Channels TV)
