Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara has urged his supporters to remain calm amid the face-off between him and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.
Speaking at the New Year banquet held on Thursday at the government house in Port Harcourt, the governor said they are not making noise because they understand the situation.
According to him, those who are “barking” are doing so because they don’t understand.
He assured his supporters that everything is in place to ensure the smooth running of his administration and his re-election bid.
He said, “Don’t be disturbed by what is happening. Caesar in one of his quotes said, the only reason the dog barks is when it doesn’t understand.
“If you have a dog in your house and it knows you, does it need to bark? So when the dog starts backing maybe it is seeing something it doesn’t understand.
“We are not barking because we understand. We know where we are going and we have set all the things that are needed to make the journey smooth”.
