Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi signed the 2014 appropriation bill into law.
A proposal to spend N485.5 billion was presented by the Governor to the State House of Assembly on January 7, and was approved the same day.
While signing the bill into law, Amaechi stressed that completion of ongoing projects in Rivers would be the main focus of the budget.
The projects include programs in health, education, roads, transport, power, water, and agriculture sectors.
Governor noted that the prompt passage of the bill would enhance sustained provision of people-oriented projects in the state.
"Let me thank the House for its action and for upholding the right of all Rivers people to good governance," Amaechi said.
