Rivers State House of Assembly has set up a committee to inquire into the funding of the PAMO University of Medical Sciences, PUMS.
The assembly disclosed this move in a statement dated 3rd of September and signed by the Chairman, House Committee on Information, Hon. Enemi Alabo George.
This came hours after the assembly had okayed the 2026 state’s Appropriation Bill of N1.8trn and the budget subsequently signed into law by Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
The assembly had expunged N6 billion meant for funding scholarships in the university before approving the budget.
