Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara has expressed gratitude for the support of his colleagues in the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) amidst the political turmoil in his state.
Following the PDP Governors’ Forum meeting in Enugu on Wednesday, Fubara stated on social media that the gathering was “positive and rewarding” and focused on delivering democracy dividends to their people.
He said, “As part of efforts to network and cross fertilize ideas on governance, I joined my brother governors under the PDP Governors’ Forum in a meeting at Enugu on Wednesday where a number of national and party related issues were extensively discussed.
“It was positive and quite rewarding as we truly engaged in very important discussions that could help us get more focused in delivering the dividends of democracy to our people.”
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that the governors, in a communiqué, declared their support for Fubara and vowed to engage in wider consultations for a peaceful resolution to the crisis.
The PDP Governors’ Forum, is led by Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed.
Fubara has been at odds with his political mentor, Nyesom Wike, now Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
It’s high time PDP Governors rise up and salvage their party because if they keep quiet, PDP will go into extinction because of the greed of one man who sees himself as a God over men. The Rumuepirikom man won’t rest and focus on his Job as Minister of FCT rather than giving Gov. Fubara problem in Rivers State. He ruled for eight (8) uninterrupted years now he doesn’t want Gov. Fubara to drink water and drop cup. To be for warned is to be for armed. PDP Governors should as a matter of urgency send a message to Mr President, urging him to call his appointee to order. He is trying to push Rivers State into anarchy so a state of emergency will be declared but God will bring his plans to nothing.
