Group applauds Fubara for quelling Rivers crisis


A group of respected elder statesmen from Opobo in Rivers State have praised Governor Siminalayi Fubara for his handling of the recent political crisis in the state, expressing their satisfaction with the manner in which he navigated the situation.
The advocacy group, Opobo Elders Statemen-4-Sim, noted that Governor Fubara’s effective management of the crisis had led to a peaceful and stable environment in the state, contrary to the predictions of chaos and unrest by some individuals.
The group in a statement by its spokesmen, Alabo Edwin Brown and Alabo Mietamuno Saturday-Jaja added that the governor’s wisdom and leadership had been instrumental in diffusing the “potential tension” that could have arisen during the crisis period.
Explaining that the state was now enjoying peace, the Opobo elder statesmen, however, called on the people of the state to join hands with Fubara to bring sustainable development to Rivers State.
The statement read, “We are pleased to report that there is now peace in the Port Harcourt metropolis and the state in general. We call on all people of good faith to join hands with the Governor to bring rapid sustainable development to the state.”
The group commended a range of stakeholders, including the Rivers Elders Forum, Coalition of Civil Society Organisations, Human Rights Advocacy Crusaders, and respected Ijaw and Ikwerre elders, for their tireless efforts in advocating for peace and stability in the state.
The group has expressed its trust in the state’s institutions and legal system, confident that they will address the transition-related issues in a transparent, impartial, and equitable way.
