Fubara Calls for Unity in Rivers State Amid Past Crisis
On Monday, during the commissioning of the Omademe Internal Roads Project in Ikwerre Local Government Area, Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara addressed the political crisis he faced with his predecessor, Nyesom Wike. Fubara stated he is focused on the future and urged political leaders to work together to maintain peace in the state.
He emphasized the importance of adding value during his administration, regardless of the number of days left in office. Fubara also announced a comprehensive staff payroll verification exercise aimed at identifying "ghost" workers across the 23 Local Government Areas, a challenge that has persisted prior to his tenure.
He noted that this initiative is part of his administration's commitment to fiscal discipline. The contract for the internal roads project was awarded to Setraco Construction Limited in February 2024, with work commencing in November 2024.
