Fubara reaffirmed his commitment to prioritizing the interests of the people amid the ongoing crisis involving the Rivers State House of Assembly.

Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has cautioned that no power is permanent, as political tensions continue to grip the state.

Speaking during the commissioning of the Bori Zonal Hospital in Khana Local Government Area, Governor Fubara reaffirmed his commitment to prioritizing the interests of the people amid the ongoing crisis involving the Rivers State House of Assembly.

Addressing the legislative impasse, he explained that in compliance with the Supreme Court?s ruling, he made several attempts to reach out to the Speaker and other members regarding the budget presentation.

According to him, despite sending WhatsApp messages and making direct efforts to establish contact, he was denied access to the Assembly complex.

He described the situation as unfortunate but expressed his willingness to return to the Assembly when perhaps the members may have received an instruction.

Fubara reminded politicians that no power lasts forever, saying that what truly matters is how power is exercised.

He warned that the misuse of power ultimately leads to destruction and reaffirmed his decision to act with restraint, acknowledging that there is life beyond political office.

He encouraged his supporters, particularly the youths, to remain steadfast, assuring them that they have not lost the battle. He expressed optimism that, in time, God would grant them victory.

On the newly commissioned hospital, Governor Fubara described the project as a true reflection of governance. He announced that his administration is remodelling zonal hospitals across the state to ease congestion in teaching hospitals.

The Bori Zonal Hospital, which had been abandoned for over eight years, was completed within nine months by indigenous contractors, marking a significant milestone in the state?s healthcare development. (Channels TV)
