Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State has delivered a stern caution to local government chairpersons in the state, warning those who show disrespect towards him that they are setting themselves up for failure.

During the commissioning of a Comprehensive Primary Health Centre (PHC) in Ndoni, Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni local government area of the state, Governor Fubara voiced his concerns regarding the absence of certain chairpersons from state government activities, allegedly due to their allegiance to former Governor Nyesom Wike.

Expressing surprise at the presence of the local government chairman of Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni at the event, Governor Fubara criticized the chairpersons for their past lack of participation in state government events.

Governor Fubara emphasized,His words: “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.

“Let me say it here: every one of you who thinks he is disrespecting me, you have already dug your pit; you will fall inside it.

“Siminalayi Fubara, like a river, will 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,” he added.
