When they thought we were being emasculated, we were behind working – Fubara says as he inaugurates project in Rivers state

Siminalayi Fubara, the governor of Rivers State, has stated that his administration continues to deliver key projects despite efforts by political opponents to undermine his achievements.

Fubara made the remarks on Saturday, December 14, during the commissioning of a 14.1-kilometre road project in Omuma Local Government Area. Although he did not explicitly mention names, tensions with his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, have led to divisions within the state, including a split in the House of Assembly.

Highlighting the significance of the newly inaugurated road, Fubara reaffirmed his dedication to serving the people of Rivers State.

“We are here, I don’t want to sing praises about this administration because governance is about serving the people, providing services, and protecting lives,” Nelson Chukwudi, the governor’s chief press secretary, quoted him as saying.

“If we don’t tell our stories, nobody is going to tell it for us. So, we have decided to tell the world, and showcase to the world what we have done.

“When they thought we were being emasculated, we were behind working, and this is one of those things we have done quietly to showcase that the interest of our people is paramount in our administration.

“This project we are about to inaugurate today is a 14.1-kilometre project. It is a project that starts from Eberi, in fact for me, it is an inter-state project because it takes you from Rivers state to Abia state, and you can imagine the significance of this project.

“It is not about me. I am not the one doing it with my resources. It is just that I am the one managing and directing the affairs of the state.”
