On Friday, Rivers State Governor Sim Fubara expressed optimism that the state has overcome its challenges, reaffirming his administration’s commitment to delivering good governance. This statement came in response to the Appeal Court’s decision to reinstate the 27 lawmakers of the Rivers State House of Assembly.
Speaking to journalists in Khana, Khana Local Government Area, Governor Fubara expressed his faith in divine guidance and reiterated his confidence in his administration’s ability to navigate the state through any obstacles.
He emphasized that the recent court ruling has not deterred his government from its mission to serve the people of Rivers State.
According to Fubara:
“I know that a lot of you will be wondering what is going on and all that. Government has its own challenges. If you go to the Book of Psalms, 23 verse 5, in the Bible, it says that God prepares a table before you; it can be before anybody.
“But there is an underlined word that should be noted there: it says ‘in the presence of your enemies’ So, it means that nothing comes easy.
“I want to assure every one of you and the good people of Rivers State, that we are not deterred. We have made our promises, and we will continue to give you good governance, no matter how difficult it is.
“But, like I said before, the worst is over. We are moving on to ensure that we continue to provide what is needed for the development of our state.”
