Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has declared that he possesses strong grassroots structures and committed supporters to ensure full backing for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 elections.
Fubara stated that mobilisation efforts for Tinubu are already about 70 percent complete across the state.
Speaking during the commissioning of the 9.7km Ogbakiri Road project, the governor assured the national leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) of his robust grassroots network and loyal supporters.
He said his confidence is further strengthened by the warm reception and support witnessed during project commissioning activities across various parts of the state.
Fubara reminded citizens of their political responsibility following Wednesday’s engagements with the APC national leadership and urged them to rally behind President Tinubu.
Describing the Ogbakiri Road as a landmark project of his administration, he noted that it was initiated during one of the most challenging periods of his tenure.
The governor recalled that the first tranche of payment for the project was made even when a court ruling blocked the Federal Government from releasing statutory allocations to Rivers State.
He emphasised that the key achievement was the completion of the road as promised, despite the hurdles faced.
Fubara also pledged to examine the cost of extending internal roads in the area and linking the newly commissioned road to Degema via a proposed bridge.
