distracted by the “antics of his political enemies” from fulfilling the
promises he made to the people of the state.
Speaking at the official kick-off of the Okania-Ogbogoro
road project in Obio/Akpor LGA on Friday, the governor cautioned his supporters
from engaging in violence against their political opponents.
Fubara added that he won’t waste his energy on fighting
detractors, but rather concentrate on setting a standard above them.
“I have only one request, and that request is to ask you to
continue to conduct yourselves peacefully in the face of all the assaults. They
want us to miss our goal, they want to distract us,” Fubara said.
“If we fight with
them, we will be wasting our energy. So, what we need to do is to continue to
do that thing which we have promised our people.
“Our style will be to set a standard that will be above them
so that when they come, they will see what we are doing. Everybody will be
seeing it that it is about the people, and they will say ‘but they are working
for the people’. So, that will be our style of leadership.”
Fubara and Nyesom Wike, minister of the federal capital
territory (FCT), have been locked in a battle for the political structure of
Rivers since 2023.
On May 13, the governor said his administration would set up
a judicial panel of inquiry to investigate the management of the state’s
resources and affairs under past administrations.
