The suspended Governor of Rivers State, Sim Fubara, has declared that his victory will come in due time. Speaking at a gathering in Bonny, Fubara emphasized that no king or authority lasts forever, but what matters is the impact made during their tenure.
Fubara's Statement
Fubara stated, "No king lives forever, that's the truth, and no authority lasts forever, but what is important is that within the period that you are in power or when you reigned, I wished you did wonderful things that would speak forever." He expressed confidence in his actions, saying, "I have never considered myself losing anything. It's when you attach life to things that it bothers you."
Context of Fubara's Suspension
Fubara's suspension followed a state of emergency declared by President Bola Tinubu in March, citing a political crisis in Rivers State. The crisis stemmed from a face-off between Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, now Minister of the Federal Capital Territory.
Reconciliation Efforts
Since his suspension, Fubara has met with Tinubu and Wike twice, seeking reconciliation. The political temperature in Rivers State has been a subject of concern, with some groups observing a significant drop in tensions.
Conclusion
Fubara's statement reflects his confidence in his leadership and his determination to make a lasting impact. As the situation in Rivers State continues to unfold, the outcome of Fubara's suspension and the reconciliation efforts will be closely watched.
