Rivers political crisis hasn’t affected governance, says Fubara

Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara ; Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Public Petitions, Hon Mike Etaba ; Hon Alex Mascot Ikwechegh ; Hon Matthew Nwogu ; and others during a courtesy visit by the committee to the Governor at Government House in Port Harcourt on Saturday evening.Fubara spoke when he hosted members of the House of Representatives Committee on Public Petitions, led by its Chairman, Mike Etaba, at Government House in Port Harcourt.

He said: “As far as we are concerned, there are no political issues. I had seen a movie many years ago, entitled, ‘Devil’s Advocate.’ I believe some of you must have seen that movie too. “Governance is about touching the core needs of those people we are leading, and by the special grace of God, we are doing it.”Fubara referred to the empowerment of about 3,066 Micro, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises when he kicked-off the N4bn single digit loan scheme in conjunction with the Bank of Industry Limited on Friday, as one way his administration was improving the socio-economic dynamics of the state.

“Our focus is that, no matter what anybody is doing anywhere, we are not going to lose focus. We want to leave here better than we had met it. And we want to also leave here without fear of anything.”Fubara in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary , Nelson Chukwudi, said it was more desirable for a public leader to relish in the accolades from the majority of the people.

“When the time of intimidation expires, even as recorded of Pharaoh in the Bible, who intimidated the children of Israel, but it got to a time that the intimidation no longer worked. The Governor said: “Leadership and respect in leadership is not earned by force. It is your style that brings respect and love. And what we are doing is to respect our people, and in turn, our people are giving us that support for leadership.
