On Tuesday, Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara stated that his full control of the state only began in February 2024.
While he formally started his term in May, Fubara stated that he just began making decisions in February of this year, eight months after taking office.
He addressed the audience during the unveiling of the Egbeda internal roads in the Emohua Local Government Area of the state.
He said, “We are just starting but I assure you more attention. If in four months we can do this, and we are getting this level of applause, you can imagine what will happen when we do one year of our record time, two years of our own record time. Rivers State would have experienced something different from the regular governance.
“I know why I said four months. We started full governance in February 2024. That was when we started taking decisions, when we started confronting governance. And I am proud to say that our people are happy with what we have done.
“What we want to do is to bring governance to our people, service delivery at record time, and in a cost-effective way.”
