Tinubu saved the river from sliding to Anarchy – Fubara

The Governor of the State of Rivers, Siminaayi Fubara, on Thursday thanked the President of Bola Tinubu for saving the country from sliding to the anarchy after months of political crisis.

The governor, according to a statement issued by the head of his press secretary, Nelson Chukwudi, spoke at a meeting with leaders and stakeholders from the simplified movement as part of the activity that marked two years at the office at Port Harcourt.

He also said the process to restore all institutions and executive and legislative offices in the state was ongoing.

Fubara, who convinced the river people about harmonious relations between the executive and legislative, said that democracy and good governance would soon return to the state.

He urged people to show appreciation that was not liked by President Tinubu for stopping the political crisis that declined in the state.

President Tinubu Bola, on March 18, stated an emergency in the river over the prolonged political crisis in the state.

He also suspended Fubara, his deputy and member of the State Council of the Council for their role in the crisis.

The Governor said: “I want to convince you that the problem will be resolved soon, and you will return to your office, not only on the executive arm, but also the legislative arm.

“And I also believe that the strong relationship that we had before will return, and we will start working together again, for the good and progress of the country. The important thing is for us to have a forgive spirit.

“We are in the process of peace. I want you to thank Mr. President for intervention on time to save the situation and stabilize the government and the state. If it wasn’t for the President, the story of today will be different.

“I do not know how he gets the information, but the reality is that he acts with wisdom at the right time. He is a person you must thank. And let me also thank him personally for the intervention, as well as personality throughout the country who moved and appealed to him for intervention.

“We have to get off our big horses and submit to the peace process. And that is what we do. What is important is for the country to move forward. This is not about you. The interest of the state is the most important.”
