Governor Sim Fubara has decried the activities of some youths involved in oil theft and other acts of economic sabotage in Rivers State.
Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has decried the activities of some youths involved in oil theft and other acts of economic sabotage in various communities of the state.
The governor said it should be the concern of everybody to support and see Nigeria progress as a stable country while advancing economically. He added that this is possible only when there is high production of crude oil, as the mainstay of the national economy. “We are charging you to please go back and take charge of your communities. I assure you of our support. If there is anything that we need to do, if it means government sending you some little support financially to create your own vigilante to help, we will do it.”
“It is at the discretion of the Governor to extend such tenure. I believe, from my own assessment, there was no reason to extend it, but rather to bring in fresh blood that can bring the council together. “So, you need to have a spirit and heart of accommodation and tolerate them. Make your point very straight when you talk to them. I strongly believe that they are matured enough to give you the required support.”
“We need total peace in our State. We cannot develop in the face of crisis. We can only improve when every person is living peacefully.”
