PDP Has Failed Us – Gov. Fubara

Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State has declared that under his watch, the state is not leaning on party affiliation but on a revolutionary movement of remaining consistent with the truth and ensuring that democratic values are protected.

Fubara who made the declaration while receiving in a courtesy visit the Senate Committee on Privatisation and Commercialisation, led by the Chairman, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, said he will not be distracted by the calculated blackmail and sabotage from some quarters against his administration.

The governor noted that God has continued to protect the state as one of such plots to create crisis in the state was averted when someone who attempted to detonate a dynamite at the Presidential Hotel area blew off his own arms.

He stated that despite being the most abused Governor in the entire federation he had deliberately tolerated such invectives to remain focused on the delivery of democratic dividends in the state, noting that those plotting to instigate crisis in the state will fail.

“In our state today we are no longer doing party. We are doing a movement, so you don’t blame me if I don’t go to the side of party too much. The party has failed us here, so what we are doing here is to stand with our two legs on the soil of Rivers State, so that we can defend democracy.”

Governor Fubara decried a situation where the explicit statutory provisions of the constitution on the tenure of local government chairmen will not be applicable in Rivers State and called for a check on such plots to undermine the Constitution to serve some vested interests.

Senator Orji Kalu who described leadership as a delicate process, commended Governor Fubara for his peaceful disposition, visionary and people oriented style of governance, and urged him to remain focused on the job, and hold on to democratic principles to promote peace and economic growth in Rivers State.

He admonished against allowing the disagreement and clash of political interest in the state to derail democratic process, noting that those instigating crisis were doing a disservice to the state.
There has been crisis in Rivers since the governor fell out with Minister of Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike.
