Fubara insists God fought against political antagonists in Rivers

Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State has offered gratitude to God for guiding him through political bumpy roads in 2024.

Speaking at the Christmas Ballad hosted by former governor of Rivers State, Dr Peter Odili, at his residence in Old GRA, Port Harcourt.

Fubara said the strength to face opposition came from the people of the state who rallied behind him following escalations with Nyesom Wike

The governor, in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Nelson Chukwudi, stated that although he was politically antagonised, God gave him a new perspective on leadership.
Fubara also insisted that God was in control of the affairs of the state, adding that as they looked forward to a prosperous 2025, they should be assured that it would be better than what had been experienced.

“I get stronger in this course every day when I look at the support I am getting from the true Rivers people. So, it is not me being strong. My strength is drawn from everyone that is here. You encouraged me; you did the work for me; you made the calls for me. So, why won’t I stand up for you?
He assured that his administration would make every succeeding year in the state better, noting that the excitement experienced among Rivers people during the Christmas celebrations was indicative of the brighter future ahead.

“But we also believe strongly that the ultimate game changer, the ultimate liberator, and the ultimate fighter remains God Almighty. And because we have Him on our side, victory is assured. I want to thank everyone, and I assure you that we will continue to run a government that will uplift the image of the State. We will not be tyrants,” he said
