BREAKING: Fubara Supports Tinubu’s Stand on Rivers Emergency Rule

Siminalayi Fubara, the suspended governor of Rivers, has urged Rivers residents and Nigerians to applaud President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his prompt action in declaring an emergency to save the state from impending chaos brought on by the persistent political conflict.

Additionally, according to Fubara, the process of peace and reconciliation needed to restore all of the state’s legislative and executive offices and institutions was already under way.

Fubara promised that the state would soon resume democracy and good government, with both branches cooperating for the benefit of the populace.
The governor addressed during a meeting with Simplified Movement leaders and stakeholders on Thursday in Port Harcourt as part of events to commemorate his two years in office, according to a statement sent by Fubara’s chief press secretary, Nelson Chukwudi.

“I want to reassure you that the issues will be resolved soon, and you will return to your offices—not just at the Legislative arm, but also at the Executive arm,” he stated. Additionally, I think that the solid bonds we once shared will resurface, and we will start cooperating once more for the benefit and advancement of the state. Our ability to forgive is what matters most.
Fubara asked his followers and the people of Rivers as a whole to express their sincere gratitude to Mr. President for his audacious move to end the State’s deteriorating political situation.

In order for the state to proceed, he urged them to fully commit to the peace process.

“We are already in the peace process,” he stated. I would want to thank the President for his prompt action to save the day and bring stability to the State and the political system. The story today might have been different if it weren’t for Mr. President.

He acted wisely at the appropriate moment, albeit I’m not sure how he obtains his information. You should give him the credit. In addition, I would like to express my gratitude to him directly for his action as well as to the national celebrities that moved in and urged him to do so.

“We must get off our high horses and submit to the peace process.” And we are doing just that. The State’s progress is what matters. The interests of the state come first; it is not about you.

He pointed out that if it weren’t for the political circumstances brought on by the crisis, the second year’s festivities would have served to highlight some of the significant achievements made by the administration in a number of state areas.

Fubara gave his word that the government would return stronger, more cohesive, and better equipped to provide the people with the high-quality dividends of democracy.

He acknowledged that people had the right to air their resentment and concerns, but he swiftly added that everyone should embrace peace, seek forgiveness, and strive reconciliation for the sake of the state’s growth and advancement.

Fubara begged for pardon from anyone who might have been let down by his handling of the situation, stressing that his actions were motivated by a desire to preserve the State’s peace and advancement.

He thanked the president for his fatherly efforts to bring peace, stability, and good governance back to the state and promised to soon reestablish a relationship with Chief Nyesom Wike, the former governor and minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

He said that there have been a number of reconciliation sessions since the President’s intervention, some of which have taken place at the FCT minister’s home.

In reference to Chief Nyesom Wike, the former Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, and his predecessor, he stated: “There is no reason why there will not be peace between me and my Oga.” We’re gathering. We’ll patch things up.

Fubara expressed gratitude to the people for their efforts and for giving him the chance to serve, and he pledged to uphold the dignity of the State’s citizens, who gave him the mandate.

“Respect is a crucial aspect of this life. I want to gain people’s respect, not impose it. I really agree with you,” he responded.

He acknowledged the prayers and devotion of the people of Rivers and all Nigerians who supported him during the time of political unrest.
