I’ll surprise you, Fubara tells critics of peace pact

Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has warned that he will surprise those who consider his honest decision to implement the presidential peace pact as a sign of weakness.

Fubara said he had been inundated with several comments in the media about the implementation of the peace initiative and had chosen to be silent out of maturity and wisdom.

The governor, however, said it was important to put the records straight for clarity, saying accepting President Bola Tinubu’s intervention and accompanying agreement was a political solution.

This was contained in a statement issued in Port Harcourt on Wednesday by his Chief Press Secretary, Nelson Chukwudi, and made available to newsmen.

Fubara said he had since then commenced implementation of the agreement because of his respect for Tinubu and not as a sign of weakness as believed by other political actors.

The governor said, “Let me say it here for record purposes: What is happening here in our dear state is somebody who has respect for an elder. Mr. President invited all the parties to Abuja and came out with a resolution that we should go and implement. That resolution, I am implementing it. It is not a constitutional implementation. It is a political solution to a problem.

” I am doing it because of the respect I have for Mr President. But, let me say here, if that action that I have accepted to take would be seen as a weakness, I will surprise them. I want this message to go to them.”

Fubara, who had received members of the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees from the 23 Local Government Areas of Rivers State on a solidarity rally at Government House Gate, in Port Harcourt on Wednesday, said their large number further goes to prove the nature of the support his administration has continued to enjoy from the people of the state.

“Some days ago, somebody said we are busy renting a crowd for thanksgiving. But what I have seen here today is not different from what is happening at those thanksgiving rallies. People are just appreciating God and good governance,” he added.

Fubara said he was mindful of the legacy he would bequeath after his tenure, saying “It should also be about the lives that have been touched genuinely; about the policies implemented without any inducement to better the lives of the people and the society.”

The governor urged the people to continue to support his administration, show understanding over actions taken, and peacefully obey the rules.

He said, “When you are doing what is right, I will stand by you. Nobody, whether full or half is going to intimidate you. Brace up, I say brace up because the next step will be fire for fire in Rivers State. Everything will be implemented.”

Fubara said that local government workers have started receiving N30,000.00 minimum wage with a promotion to be implemented beginning from April’s salary payment.

He also promised to set in motion plans to finalise modalities for the implementation of the Consolidated Salary Scale for Grade Level 17 and regular payment of benefits to the local government service retirees.

“For our people, the great and wonderful people of Rivers State, we will continue to lead you with the fear of God.

“Maturity is not about age. Maturity is in the person. It is what defines the character of a person. I chose not to respond to people that I assumed are mature but are obviously immature in attitude.

“I will continue to be mature, not minding my age, but I will not, for any reason, allow myself or anybody who is working with me in this administration to be messed with, maltreated, or abused in the cause of administering this governance, ” the governor added.

In his speech, the Rivers State Chairman of the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees, Clifford Paul, told the governor that they were on a Thank-You Rally to show appreciation for his love for the workers.

Paul stated that Fubara had changed their fortunes and restored hope in them when he directed the payment of N30,000.00 minimum wage to the workers and lifted the right-year ban on promotion, which has now placed them at par with their counterparts across the country.
