When Time Is Right, We’ll Know Who Is Who, Fubara Tells Opponents
He said, “Let’s ignore the noise some people are making. When the time is right, we will know who is who.
Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has called on his supporters to remain calm amidst recent political rhetoric from certain quarters, assuring them that the time for active politicking is yet to come.
He said when the time is right, the people of the state will know “who is who.”
Governor Fubara was speaking at the 7th anniversary of the kingship installation of Eze Cassidy Ikegbidi, a politician-turned-traditional ruler of the Akoh people in Ahoada East Local Government Area.
He said, “Let’s ignore the noise some people are making. When the time is right, we will know who is who.
“So don’t worry about anything. It is God that has led us from that day till today, and each day we get stronger and stronger. It is only God.
“We are not achieving all this because of our strength or because we are boasting. It is because our strength is built in God. So, we don’t need to worry about what people are saying. Let the time come, and we will see how it will end”.
The governor attributed his survival from the political antics to divine providence and noted that his administration continues to grow stronger despite the expectations of detractors.
He urged the people of Akoh to embrace peace, emphasizing that development can only thrive in a harmonious environment.
“The most important thing is that we must ensure we live peacefully. Development cannot come to your kingdom, and development cannot come to the Ekpeye Ethnic Nationality without peace. There will be many attempts to bring disunity among you. Try as much as you can to avoid it”
You know the mechanism of those people: “Divide and Rule.” Try to avoid anything that will bring problems to this kingdom so that we can continue to show that we love you by ensuring we bring meaningful projects that will bring development to the Ekpeye people”.
Governor Fubara also commended the traditional ruler for his support and contributions to the success of the administration.
“My coming to Akoh Kingdom is to show support to one of our own, a man who has decided to join the good side of history. A man who has endured punishment because of this struggle, yet still stood his ground. The least I can do is to come to his kingdom and show solidarity with him.
You have shown so much support at the detriment of this kingdom, and the least we can do is ensure we give the people of Akoh and the Ekpeye people the assurance that we are with them.”
As a gesture of appreciation, he immediately approved a request for road construction in the area, reaffirming his commitment to good governance and improving the lives of Rivers State residents.
