Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has stated that the ongoing political crisis in the state is fundamentally about controlling its resources.
Addressing members of Omega Power Ministries Worldwide during the 51st birthday celebration of its General Overseer, Apostle Chibuzor Chinyere, and the church’s 18th anniversary at its headquarters in Mbodo, Aluu, Ikwerre Local Government Area, Governor Fubara assured Rivers residents of his commitment to using state resources judiciously for the benefit of the people.
Governor Fubara emphasized his dedication to ensuring that resources are deployed in the best interest of the people, promising that his administration would remain focused on governance despite the current tensions.
He also urged for the continued prayers of the church to support his administration in achieving its goals.
Fubara stated, “There is a reason for this crisis, and that reason is the control of the resources of Rivers State. Rivers State resources belong to you (the people), and we will make sure that the resources are applied judiciously for the betterment of Rivers State.
“What you owe us is just one thing: Continue to pray for us. Let us not lose focus because we know the devil is always at war to derail people in governance.
“Continue to pray for us because what is most important is the interest of the people here, and I believe that with your prayers, we will not lose focus and the purpose of governance will be achieved in Rivers State.”
Fubara lauded the General Overseer of OPM Worldwide, Apostle Chinyere for his philanthropic works and contributions to humanity.
The governor, who noted the decay of public amenities met on assumption of office, commended the cleric for the various educational programmes in the ministry aimed at providing children with the requisite vocational and technical knowledge needed for future employment.
He said, “I want to commend you for what you are doing. Life is not about taking. What is important in life is giving, and anybody who believes that it is only taking, the person won’t go far in life.
“For all you are doing for humanity, God will continue to strengthen you. You don’t know what you are doing, but those of us who are outside understand your contributions to humanity.
“Look at what you just showed me here. How many of our schools are still functioning to provide that level of training? They are no longer there! We met a dead system which we are trying to revive. But you are doing it as a private person. Why won’t God bless you?”
Fubara further thanked the cleric and the congregation for the support to his administration, particularly the prayers, which he noted, have kept the government alive, in spite of all the challenges, urging them to continue to pray for the progress of Rivers State and defense of humanity.
