In a recent statement, Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, a prominent figure in the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State, cautioned Governor Siminalayi Fubara against the notion of resignation, asserting that such a move would bring about chaos and unrest in the state.
Eze’s remarks come in response to Fubara’s televised interview, where the governor expressed a willingness to step down from his position if it meant fostering peace and stability in Rivers State.
During the interview, Governor Fubara articulated his commitment to the welfare of the state, emphasizing his readiness to make sacrifices for the greater good. He underscored the importance of preserving the interests and aspirations of the people of Rivers State, regardless of personal ambitions.
Responding to Fubara’s sentiments, Eze urged the governor to reconsider any thoughts of resignation, warning that yielding to external pressures would signify capitulation to malevolent forces. He emphasized the significance of Fubara’s leadership in safeguarding the welfare of Rivers’ citizens and fulfilling the mandate entrusted to him by the electorate.

“My dear governor, resigning or attempting to resign will cause an unpleasant and chaotic situation in Rivers State,” Eze stated emphatically. “Doing that will be succumbing not only to agents of darkness hovering around like vultures to collapse the state, but will cause God to regret using you as a tool to free His children from the shackles of a very wicked emperor.”
Eze encouraged Fubara to draw strength from the support of the people, the constitution of Nigeria, and divine guidance. He reassured the governor that he was not alone in facing the challenges posed by detractors and adversaries.
“Don’t be afraid as the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, the entire elders, reasonable stakeholders, God-fearing pastors, youths, pensioners, civil servants of Rivers State are with you and most importantly, God is with you. So, bury the thought of this resignation saga,” Eze urged, offering words of encouragement and solidarity.
Eze’s counsel reflects a broader sentiment within the APC, which perceives Fubara’s leadership as integral to the continued progress and prosperity of Rivers State. The party stalwart emphasized the need for resilience and steadfastness in the face of adversity, urging Fubara to remain resolute in his commitment to the people he serves.
