Governor Smijnalayi Fubara of Rivers State has said he was not deterred by the Court of Appeal judgement which has reinstated the 25 pro-Wike members of the House of Assembly.
Fubara stated this while speaking to newsmen after the inspection of the reconstruction work at the Zonal Hospital in Bori town, Khana Local Government Area.
He said there was no cause to worry over the pronouncements, adding that God has prepared him a table of blessings in the presence of his enemies.
“I know that a lot of you will be wondering what is going on and all that. The government has its challenges. If you go to the book of Psalm 23 verse 5, in the Bible, it says that God prepares a table before you; it can be before anybody.
“But there is an underlined word that should be noted here: it said ‘in the presence of your enemies’. So, it means that nothing comes easy.
“I want to assure every one 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,” he said.
Fubara said healthcare, education, and agriculture among other sectors would be his top priorities and would be given uncompromised attention and optimal services.
