Siminalayi Fubara, Governor of Rivers State, expresses unwavering commitment to peace, stating he’s prepared to step down if it contributes to restoring harmony in the region.

Fubara’s remarks come amid tensions with Nyesom Wike, former Rivers governor and current FCT minister, over control of the state’s political landscape.

The discord has triggered a political crisis, including the demolition of the Rivers House of Assembly complex and the resignation of some of Fubara’s cabinet members. Additionally, Wike’s allies in the Rivers House of Assembly initiated impeachment proceedings against the governor amidst the ongoing turmoil.”

Fubara yesterday in an interview with AIT said; “No sacrifice will be too big for me to pay for the success of this administration and the reason is very simple,” ” It is not political love. It is not because I want to gain any favour from anybody. My interest and love for our dear state is genuine.”

“I am not trying to say I want to be one man that would be there to decide the fate of all, no. But let Rivers state remain.”

“If leaving this position is what I need or what is needed to bring more peace to the state, I can even tell you people to come and take it. “It’s not about me. People should understand that definitely I will go but Rivers state will remain.”
