STATE OF EMERGENCY: I’M NOT DESPERATE TO RETURN TO OFFICE – FUBARA
The suspended governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara, has said he is not desperate to return to office.
Fubara stated this at the service of songs held in honour of the late elder statesman, Edwin Clark, in Port Harcourt, the state capital, organised by the Rivers Elders Forum on Sunday.
The embattled governor responded to several speakers at the event who referred to him as “Governor” and strongly criticised his suspension, calling for immediate reversal.
He distanced himself from their remarks, describing them as personal opinions.
According to him, such comments were not likely to promote peace.
“Not everything is by oshogbe,” he cautioned, hinting at his preference for a more strategic and less confrontational approach to the ongoing political crisis.
“Do you even know if I want to go back there? My spirit has already left there,” he said.
Fubara further warned that some of the actions taken by some of his supporters, though well-intended, had only worsened his situation.
