G-60 Lawmakers Hail Fubara, Congratulate New Rivers LG Caretaker Chairmen
Opposition Federal Lawmakers under the aegis of G-60 have hailed the Rivers State governor, Siminalayi Fubara, and the good people of the state over the swearing-in of Caretaker Committee chairmen for the 23 local government areas in the State, after their successful screening by the State House of Assembly to fill the vacancies created by the expiration of tenure of the former elected Council Chairmen.
The G-60, in a statement on Tuesday recalled that the tenure of the elected council chairmen in the 23 local government areas of Rivers State who were sworn in three years ago during Governor Nyesom Wike-led administration had expired on Monday, June 17, 2024.
They urged the newly sworn-in caretaker chairmen to wipe away the tears of Governor Fubara and the people of Rivers State who had suffered untold hardship in hands of their predecessors, who allegedly abandoned their responsibilities and embarked on macabre dance while the people they were elected to serve wallowed in pains.
According to G-60, the former local government bosses stood on the way of Fubara, who came with a good intention to rewrite the history of Rivers and put it back on the path of development.
The statement read: “We congratulate the Rivers State Governor, His Excellency, Siminalayi Fubara and the good people of the state over the swearing-in of 23 Local Government Council Caretaker Committee Chairmen, after the successful screening by the Rivers State House of Assembly to fill the vacancies created after the the expiration of tenure of the former elected Local Government Council Chairmen on Monday, 17th June, 2024.
“While particularly congratulating the newly appointed Caretaker Committees, we urge them to give unalloyed support and unwavering loyalty to Governor Fubara and the Oko-Jumbo- led Rivers State House of Assembly for the peace, stability and progress of the treasure base of Nigeria and should not toe the path of their predecessors who were nothing but saboteurs and clogs in the wheels of progress.
“We equally hail Governor Fubara for been democratic enough to have allowed the former Chairmen to complete their three tenure without any disruption despite the provocative acts against him. He has demonstrated maturity and leadership qualities never exibited by Governors in the country, especially his predecessor who defiled court injunctions’ sacked and appointed a caretaker committee chairmen barely two months into office.”
