Rivers State Governor Sim Fubara said that the state is not experiencing a crisis.
Rather, Fubara made it clear his government is committed to providing excellent governance to the people of Rivers State.
He addressed the House of Representatives Committee on Public Petitions at Government House in Port Harcourt.
Fubara emphasised that political pressure will increase his administration’s dedication to service.
In the words of the Governor:
“As far as we are concerned, there are no political issues. I had seen a movie many years ago, entitled, ‘Devil’s Advocate’. I believe some of you must have seen that movie too.
“One of the starring characters, Al Pacino, said that pressure makes some people retreat or fail, and to others, it makes them become focused on succeeding. We have chosen to be focused under this pressure.
“That is why we are moving ahead. That is why we are making a positive impact on the lives of our people. Governance is about the people. It is not about self.
“Governance is about touching the core needs of those people we are leading, and by the special grace of God, we are doing it.”
