Suspended Rivers State governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has restated his strong commitment to upholding the rule of law, protecting fundamental human rights, and ensuring that all citizens, regardless of political affiliation, can actively participate in the democratic process in the State.

Fubara, who was suspended from office along with his deputy and members of the State House of Assembly on March 18, 2025, by President Bola Tinubu over prolonged political crisis in the State, disclosed this in his June 12 Democracy Day message, which was made available to journalists in Port Harcourt.

He also emphasised his administration’s dedication to safeguarding lives and property through robust security strategies. He pledged to continue defending the state’s interests and to maintain a government that values inclusivity, transparency, and accountability.

Reflecting on Nigeria’s 26 years of unbroken democratic rule, Fubara called for collaboration across political divides to build a society where every citizen is heard, supported to achieve their potential, and encouraged to contribute to collective progress.

He acknowledged the recent political turbulence in Rivers State, which disrupted democratic governance, noting that it served as a reminder of how delicate democracy could be, stressing that democracy must be actively protected and nurtured in order to remain strong and meaningful.

Fubara noted that the state’s democratic experience has come with both victories and challenges, each reinforcing the need to stay true to the principles of democracy.

He said that his administration has prioritised fairness and open-mindedness, safeguarded civil liberties, and put systems in place to ensure effective oversight. In addition, the government has intentionally pursued policies that encourage inclusion, responsibility, and openness, with the goal of helping democracy thrive for future generations.

The suspended governor, who maintained that while the state’s democratic journey has faced setbacks, the collective determination of its people remains intact, called on citizens to face this moment with unity, boldness, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Emphasising that the future of Rivers State depends on the people’s ability to work together, innovate, and push forward with shared goals, Fubara encouraged every citizen to take an active role in creating a peaceful and united society, one built on healing, mutual understanding, and a shared vision for long-term development.

He acknowledged the efforts and sacrifices of past leaders, noting that they laid the foundation for today’s democracy, saying that the current moment should serve as a measure of the people’s ability to build on those gains and transform Rivers State into one that truly serves all its residents.

Fubara stated that the hardships endured on the path to democracy should remind everyone of the importance of honouring the legacy of those who fought for it, and of remaining committed to the values that inspired them.

While urging Rivers people to act with patriotism, dedication, and a sense of responsibility, the suspended governor described this period as a call to action, one that requires the use of the state’s collective creativity, energy, and commitment to overcome challenges ahead.

He expressed confidence in the direction the state was taking, stating that Rivers State will emerge stronger and more united and appealed to every citizen to play their part in building a society where everyone has the opportunity to contribute meaningfully to the state’s progress.
