Fubara Berates Those Disrespecting Him

Rivers State governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has declared that those disrespecting him as governor of the state have already dug their pit and will fall into it.

Fubara made the declaration yesterday at the commissioning of Comprehensive Primary Health Centre, Ndoni in Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni local government area of the state, which was donated to the state government by former Governor Peter Odili.

The governor specifically berated some local government chairmen in the state for refusing to participate in state government programmes because their loyalty lies elsewhere.

He said, “I am surprised that I saw the local government chairman of Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni here. I am very surprised because I know that for a very long time, any event that has to do with the state government, all the local government chairmen, as it were, do not participate. I hope when he leaves here, they are not going to sack him.

“I know you are not loyal to me. Are they not going to sack you? Or when you leave here, you will grant a press interview that it was not you. That it was your shadow.

“Let me say it here; every one of you who are disrespecting me, you have already dug your pit. You will fall inside it. Siminalayi Fubara, like a river, we flow in a direction that there is no resistance. One way or the other, we will get to our destination and we will go with our people.

“They said we are clueless. If providing  quality education to our people is being clueless, I agree with them; I accept it. They said we are clueless. If providing quality healthcare services to our dear people, is being clueless, then we agree with that. It is the truth; they said we are clueless.

“If targeting critical projects, like this road we have awarded, the Elele- Egbeda-Omoku road; if they say is being clueless, then, we agree. But, we will not go and do road to our farm because we want to please somebody politically.

“We will do those things that our people want and will benefit from. If that one means being clueless, then, we are clueless. In fact, I will change my name to Clueless.”
