Governor Siminalayi Fubara has firmly declared that any attempts by enemies of his administration to arrest his supporters will be thwarted, ensuring that the peace in Rivers State remains unbroken.
Addressing Government House Correspondents after a Security Council meeting on Tuesday, Governor Fubara highlighted the importance of the meeting, prompted by unsettling reports from various local government areas, Hitvibz reports.
According to the governor, certain individuals are allegedly plotting to invade council secretariats following the expiration of local government chairmen’s tenures.
“We are aware that our enemies are planning a lot of things, but we will not fall into that plot where we will allow them to destroy the prevailing peace in the state,” Governor Fubara stated emphatically.
The governor further disclosed awareness of a grand scheme to arrest some of his supporters, asserting that such actions would be met with resistance.
“Authorities will have to pass through me to arrest them because none of those following us have done anything other than stand on the side of the truth,” he declared.
Governor Fubara expressed his commitment to standing up for truth and justice, even at great personal risk.
“If it will cost us our lives to stand on the path of truth, we will do that, and I will be the one to lead this cause,” he said passionately.
He affirmed the legal mandate concerning the tenure of the chairmen, which led to his directive for Heads of Local Government Administration to assume control in the interim.
Governor Fubara warned those attempting to disrupt the state’s stability to abandon their plans and embrace peace.
“I assure everyone that whatever it takes to maintain peace and order, we are not going back on that,” he reiterated.
In his closing remarks, Governor Fubara expressed gratitude to the people of Rivers State for their support and commended the media for their role as steadfast allies through their objective reporting and vigilance.
