We cannot continue to await the so-called Assembly members, if they prefer not to receive the 2025 budget due to the proposed local government council election, and some commissioners in my cabinet that they believe are illegal, then they leave us with no choice but to revert to our 3-man assembly, this time Sokari Goodboy will be the speaker.

Let me emphasize this, I am the Governor of Rivers State, and not the local government chairman of Government House, I will not permit anyone within or outside the state to undermine my authority given to me by the people of the state.

I think we have accorded Mr. President and the Supreme Court excessive undeserving respect, enough is enough.

Henceforth, we will formulate our decisions and policies in line with orders from Rivers State High Court only, and if these external forces push us further, we will react in a manner they will never imagine.

Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara speaking with a high-level delegation of PANDEF that paid him a solidarity visit at Government House, Port Harcourt on Sunday, 16 March 2025.
