GOV. FUBARA

Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has revealed the true motive fueling the political turbulence in the state; a sinister plot by certain individuals to seize and squander the state’s resources.

The Governor shared these insights during the birthday celebration of Apostle Chibuzor Gift Chinyere, the General Overseer of Omega Power Ministries. Speaking to a gathering of supporters and worshippers, he stated, “There’s a reason for the crisis in Rivers State and that reason is an attempt to control its resources. Rivers State’s resources belongs to its people, and we are committed to using it wisely for the betterment of all. What we ask from you is your continued prayers; with your support, we will stay focused and our mission of good governance will be achieved.”

Gov. Fubara also took a moment to applaud Apostle Chibuzor Gift Chinyere’s dedication to humanity, praying for God’s strength, wisdom, and grace upon his life.

Adding to the momentous occasion, Governor Fubara generously donated 200 million Naira to Omega Power Ministries, recognizing the impactful work of the church. The celebration drew an impressive array of dignitaries, including former Nigerian First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan; Senator Adolphus Wabara, PDP Board of Trustees Chairman; and Hon. Uzoma Abonta, former House of Representatives member for Ukwa East/Ukwa West Federal Constituency.

Earlier in the day, the Governor attended a Thanksgiving service at Salvation Ministries headquarters in GRA Phase 2, Port Harcourt, held in honour of the Deputy Governor of Rivers state, Prof. Ngozi Nma Odu.

The atmosphere was filled with joy and gratitude as leaders and well-wishers gathered to celebrate her remarkable contributions to the state.

“The African Democratic Congress (ADC) is a party that belongs to all Nigerians. What we are doing now is to ensure the party moves forward properly.

“We have decided that we will give the youths a real chance. The time has come for young people to take the lead in politics.

“If you are over 55 years old, you are not going to contest for positions in the ADC under our leadership.

“We want to bring in fresh blood, new ideas, and energy from the youth. Nigeria’s future depends on the young generation.
