According to report from Daily trust, Governor Sir Siminalayi Fubara has expressed his resolve to maintain political pressure on his adversaries, including Nyesom Wike and his faction. The ongoing political strife has escalated tensions within the state, with Governor Fubara firmly committed to consolidating his position of power.
During a recent event in Port Harcourt, the governor addressed the controversy surrounding a list purportedly representing the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Caretaker Committee members. Governor Fubara denounced the list as fraudulent, attributing it to individuals seeking to foment discord and attract media spotlight.
The governor further clarified that the PDP’s decision to extend the tenure of its Executive Councils across various states, including Rivers, was a strategic move not aimed at introducing new members or diminishing the governors’ influence. He reassured party members and supporters that any lists not officially sanctioned would be disregarded.
With the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting scheduled for April 18th, Governor Fubara anticipates official endorsement of the recent decisions, dismissing any unauthorized lists as attempts by desperate parties to gain media traction.
Governor Fubara also alluded to the palpable anxiety among his political rivals following his latest pronouncements. He pledged to persist in his efforts to keep them in a state of unease.
In his word, “You can see how restless they have been since I made just one statement, yesterday. We will continue to make them restless,” he affirmed.
