Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, reaffirms his strength amidst commitment to a peace pact, emphasizing his administration’s resilience in the face of challenges.
Governor Siminalayi Fubara rebuffs any notion that his dedication to the presidential peace pactt signals weakness, warning detractors of impending surprises.
VerseNews reports that amid media scrutiny on the agreement’s execution, the governor opts for silence, portraying it as a display of maturity and wisdom.
Highlighting the importance of accurate information dissemination, Governor Fubara underscores the acceptance of President Bola Tinubu’s intervention as a political resolution.
This stance, articulated in a statement from his Chief Press Secretary, Nelson Chukwudi, reaffirms the governor’s steadfastness in upholding the peace initiative.
“Let me say it here for record purposes: What is happening here in our dear state is somebody who has respect for an elder. Mr. President invited all the parties to Abuja and came out with a resolution that we should go and implement. That resolution, I am implementing it. It is not a constitutional implementation. It is a political solution to a problem.
“I am doing it because of the respect I have for Mr President. But, let me say here, if that action that I have accepted to take would be seen as a weakness, I will surprise them. I want this message to go to them.” the Governor said.
Governor Fubara welcomed members of the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees (NULGE) from all 23 Local Government Areas of Rivers State during a solidarity rally at the Government House Gate in Port Harcourt on Wednesday. He stated that their significant turnout reaffirms the strong grassroots support his administration receives from the people of the state.
“Some days ago, somebody said we are busy renting crowd for thanksgiving. But what I have seen here today, it’s not different from what is happening at those thanksgiving rallies. People are just appreciating God and good governance.”
Governor Fubara stated that he was mindful of the legacy he would bequeath after his tenure, adding “It should also be about the lives that have been touched genuinely; about the policies implemented without any inducement to better the lives of the people and the society.”
The Governor urged the people to continue to support his Administration, show understanding over actions taken, and obey the rules in a peaceful manner.
“When you are doing what is right, I will stand by you. Nobody, whether full or half is going to intimidate you. Brace up, I say brace up, because the next step, it will be fire for fire in Rivers State. Everything will be implemented.”
