Ismail Abdulazeez Mantu Reporting
Rivers State, Nigeria
Governor of Rivers State, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has vowed not to surrender his powers as Governor of Rivers State to his predecessor, Nyesom Wike.
The governor made the bold declaration at the crossover church service at St. Paul’s Archdeaconry Parish in Opobo Town on 2024 New Year’s Eve in Opobo/Nkoro Local Government Area.
Fubara stated that he is not pretentious about his commitment to providing quality leadership, even though those fighting his administration want to dampen the spirit of Rivers people and forcefully truncate the pace of development.
He, therefore, encouraged Rivers people not to be frightened, saying:
“I want to urge everyone of us here, don’t be frightened. What they want is this red biro; it is still with me. They have failed. You are the winner; we are the winner because we are still signing with the red biro. And, so long as we are signing with the red biro, development will continue in Rivers State.”
