Former Governor of Rivers State, Peter Odili, has again expressed backing for the administration of Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
At the inauguration of the Omoku-Egbema Road in the state on Saturday, Odili told Fubara not to be apprehensive of anyone as the people of the state are with him.
Odili urged Fubara to remain focus on his “people-focused objectives”, saying the projects so far embarked upon by the present administration are enough to secure the support of the people for the 2027 election.
Odili, who was Rivers governor from May 1999 to May 2007, said, “Don’t be afraid because when the people are with you, be assured that God is with you and no man can shake you.”
Fubara and his immediate predecessor, Nyesom Wike, have been embroiled in a protracted conflict in the last one year.
