Group hails Fubara for quelling Rivers crisis

A group of elder statesmen of Opobo in Rivers State have expressed satisfaction with the manner the state Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, handled the political crisis in the state.

The advocacy group known as Opobo Elders Statemen-4-Sim observed that the governor’s handling of the crisis had resulted in a peaceful atmosphere in the state despite the expectation of trouble by some people.

The group in a statement by its spokesmen, Alabo Edwin Brown and Alabo Mietamuno Saturday-Jaja added that the governor’s wisdom and leadership had been instrumental in diffusing the “potential tension” that could have arisen during the crisis period.

Explaining that the state was now enjoying peace, the Opobo elder statesmen, however, called on the people of the state to join hands with Fubara to bring sustainable development to Rivers State.

“We are pleased to report that there is now peace in the Port Harcourt metropolis and the state in general. We call on all people of good faith to join hands with the Governor to bring rapid sustainable development to the state,” the statement read.

The group also applauded various groups within and outside the state, including the Rivers Elders Forum, Coalition of Civil Society Organizations, Human Rights Advocacy Crusaders, and some prominent Ijaw and Ikwerre elders, for their efforts in suing for peace in the state.

It expressed confidence in the state’s institutions and legal system to adjudicate the transition-related issues fairly and impartially, even as it stressed the need for all parties to respect the rule of law and refrain from actions that could escalate tensions or disrupt the peace in the state.
