They Won’t Know Where It Is Coming From- Fubara Vows To Deal With Wike’s Camp

Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has vowed to maintain pressure on the faction of his predecessor, Nyesom Wike.

Tensions have escalated in Rivers since Fubara’s fallout with Wike, who now serves as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

Addressing attendees at the groundbreaking ceremony for an automobile spare parts market in Port Harcourt on Thursday, Fubara dismissed the purported list of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Caretaker Committee members for the State circulating on social media as fraudulent.

He characterized the list, which includes names of Wike’s allies, as the fabrication of attention-seekers and troublemakers.

“I know that a lot of you saw something flying in the social media, dailies. Let me brief you, we hard a meeting, and we agreed that, not just in Rivers State, but in all the States affected, that the Executive Councils (of PDP) should be extended for three months.”

“This extension is not meant to bring in new names. The extension also did not say that you are working without the authority of the Governor. So, for those lists that you saw and those ones altered, I can assure you that they are not going to stand.

“For record purposes, so that you will understand, we also agreed that there is going to be a NEC meeting on the 18th of this month (April) that should ratify that decision.

“So, what you are seeing is the handiwork of desperate people who like media publicity. In fact, empty drums make loudest noise. So, don’t bother about anything. Nothing is happening.”

Governor Fubara hinted at the unease gripping his detractors following his recent warning that he will take action against those who challenge him, reaffirming his commitment to keeping them unsettled.

The Governor emphasized the significance of safeguarding Rivers State, underscoring his Administration’s commitment to fostering progress through peaceful means.

“You can see how restless they have been since I made just one statement, yesterday. We will continue to make them restless.”

“They won’t know where we are coming from. We will also continue to hit them hard the way we hit them, yesterday. So, those of you who were worried when you saw those lists that were flying, go and rest, nothing is happening.”
