The governor pointed to what he called the ungodly motive of those he said were pushing to disrupt governance by worsening the feisty political relationship, and insisted that his path would remain ensuring peace. He warned against any act of lawlessness.
He said: “I want to say to our teeming supporters, I know some of you; your spirits are high, some of you, your spirits are low. But, I want to assure you about one important fact of life: God does not start a thing and end halfway.
“It doesn’t matter what the situation might be today, I assure you that we will come up again stronger and better. Continue to follow my footstep, and that footstep remains the path of peace. We need it because if anything happens, we are the greatest losers.”
He said the concern for Rivers State is not because of his own profit, but the total well-being of Rivers State. “So, I appeal to everyone of you: be law abiding. I will not encourage any act of disobedience or any act of violence. But that is not to say that we will support evil. We will never support evil.”
Gov Fubara said his administration is focused on good governance and will not renege on the promise of delivering impactful, people-oriented development projects, continually.
