Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has urged members of the State House of Assembly to put aside political differences and focus on the well-being of the people.
Speaking at the commissioning of projects in Okrika Local Government Area on Thursday, Fubara emphasized that peace and stability are essential for effective governance.
“It is important at this stage that we all embrace peace,” the governor said, stressing the need for unity to move the state forward.
Commitment to Supreme Court Judgment
Fubara reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to implementing the Supreme Court’s February 28, 2025, decision, calling on all political stakeholders to do the same.
“The Supreme Court has made its judgment; we have no option but to abide by it. By the special grace of God, we have already started the process,” he stated.
The governor urged all parties to prioritize the state’s progress, saying, “The only thing we owe Rivers State is peace and development. I am open any day, any time to total peace because, for me to govern well, there must be peace.”
His remarks come amid ongoing political tensions in the state, with calls for reconciliation and collective efforts toward development.
