Fubara made this statement during the visit of Eid al -Fitr Sallah at his personal residence in Port Harcourt, where he received Muslim leaders from 20 groups based in Islam, including the highest council for Islamic affairs.

In everything, we give glory to God Almighty. I believe that, in the end, we will appear stronger,” he added.
