Rivers Appeal Court judgement: We are not deterred, says Sim Fubara
Governor, Similanayi Fubara of Lagos State has reacted to the recent Appeal Court ruling that voided declaration of the seats of the 25 members of the state House of Assembly vacant.
The lawmakers are loyalists of the immediate past governor of the state and now Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike.
Speaking to newsmen in Khana, Khana Local Government Area on Friday, Fubara said he is not deterred.
He anchored his confidence on God’s guidance and provision in accordance with Psalm 23:5.
According to him: “I know that a lot of you will be wondering what is going on and all that. Government has its own challenges.
“If you go to the book of Psalm 23 verse 5, in the Bible, it said that God prepares a table before you; it can be before anybody. But there is an underlined word that should be noted there: it said ‘in the presence of your enemies’. So, it means that nothing comes easy.
“I want to assure everyone of you and the good people of Rivers State, that we are not deterred. We have made our promises, we will continue to give you good governance, no matter how difficult it is.
“But, like I said before, the worst is over. We are moving on to ensure that we continue to provide what is needed for the development of our state.”
