Rivers: Costliest peace cheaper than war – Fubara on Wike, Lamarkers deal

Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has called on the people of the state to embrace the return from emergency rule as a fresh beginning.

Fubara made the call on Friday during his statewide broadcast in Port Harcourt, the state capital.

This followed the suspension of the state of emergency imposed on the state on 18 March and the reinstatement of the governor, his deputy, and members of the State House of Assembly.

“Let us, therefore, embrace this moment as a fresh beginning. Let us work together with renewed hope and determination to build a stronger, more peaceful and prosperous Rivers State.

“I assure you that we will continuously work towards ensuring that we carry everyone along.

“Despite the turbulence, you are aware of the credible milestones our administration achieved in infrastructure, education, healthcare, and other key sectors over the last two years,” he stated.
