There’s no political issues in Rivers- Gov Fubara

Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has dismissed any notion of political crisis in the state, saying his administration has provided focused leadership and governance to the people.

Fubara stated this while receiving members of the House of Representatives Committee on Public Petitions at Government House in Port Harcourt on Saturday.

He said his goal for the Rivers people was delivering good governance explaining how the pressure from the unwarranted political crisis served as an enabler to strengthen his commitment to service.

“As far as we are concerned, there are no political issues. I had seen a movie many years ago, entitled, ‘Devil’s Advocate.’ I believe some of you must have seen that movie too,” he stated.

“One of the starring characters: Al Pacino said, that pressure makes some people retreat or fail, and to others, it makes them become focused on succeeding. We have chosen to be focused under this pressure.

“That is why we are moving ahead. That is why we are making a positive impact on the lives of our people. Governance is about the people. It is not about self.

“Governance is about touching the core needs of those people we are leading, and by the special grace of God, we are doing it.”
