Our Enemies Can No Longer Sleep – Fubara Reveals What He Has Done
Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, made a bold declaration, asserting that those who harbor ill intentions towards his leadership in the state can no longer sleep.
He stated this sentiment during a meeting at the Government House in Port Harcourt, where he welcomed the state and national leaderships of the Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) during their solidarity walk.
Fubara’s statement comes amidst escalating tensions between him and his predecessor, former Governor Nyesom Wike. The solidarity walk was organized as part of the commemoration of the late Major Isaac Adaka Boro’s heroic deeds, observed annually on May 16.
Reflecting on Major Boro’s legacy of championing equity, justice, and fair play for the Ijaw people, Governor Fubara emphasized the importance of every Rivers indigene embodying the spirit of liberation. He expressed gratitude for the visit on such a significant occasion, highlighting the shared commitment to the state’s advancement.
He remarked, “Because he stood for that unique thing, even after his death, we still celebrate him because he was a liberator. Every Rivers man, it doesn’t matter whether you are Ijaw or upland, the most important thing is that every genuine Rivers man must be a liberator.
“I’m happy that you have come here today. I have also received you because we have one common purpose: to liberate our dear state. We are not going back on that.
“I am happy that you’ve told me this morning that when I call on you, you will respond. But there is nothing to call on you for. Because we have already defeated them.
“By the special grace of God, what they thought that they would have done to us while we were celebrating our one year in office, they are the ones sleeping with their two eyes open. It shows that we have the Ijaw blood. And what is that blood: it is the blood of action; less talk, more action.”
Governor Fubara urged Ijaw youths to maintain peace and uphold the honor of the entire Ijaw Nation as they marked Major Isaac Adaka Boro Day. Additionally, he pledged support for the establishment of a suitable secretariat for the IYC Eastern Zone in Rivers State.
