The majority leader of the legislative arm, Eloho Eza moved a motion for the budget to pass through the first reading and was seconded by Okeoghene Ukoh.

Oghenero Umeh, the councillor from Olomoro, raised a point of urgent public importance concerning sand dredgers in Isoko South as the distance between their sand beach and the main access road was too close and advised that they should take proactive measures to avoid future mishaps.

In the absence of any further deliberation, Eza moved for the adjournment of the plenary session and was seconded by the councillor representing Irri ward 10, Sarah Francis.
