BREAKING: ‘You Will Overcome Your Enemies, God And Some Of Us Made Those Shouting In Abuja Now’

A former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Uche Secondus, has assured Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara of victory over his enemies.

Speaking at the commissioning of the Bori Town Internal Roads project in the state, Secondus said the reign of Fubara has restored peace and sanity in Rivers State.

According to him, the toxic situation in which traditional rulers, commissioners and permanent secretaries get harrassed is now a thing of the past.

Secondus, while commending the Rivers State Governor, praised him as a man of humility, integrity, and sacrifice, who is interested in the wellbeing of the people.

The former PDP National Chairman, according to a statement on Tuesday by the Governor’s  Chief Press Secretary, Nelson Chukwudi, also charged the people of Rivers State to support Governor Fubara in his developmental efforts.

“For my people, this road, we must own it. We must maintain the drainage and the roads so that the Governor can do more.

“I can tell you that the test of a leader is when you find yourself in confusion, in frustration, and you come out of it with faith, even greater faith like Governor Siminalayi Fubara; you will know the real leader of the people.

“He is not a man who wants all for himself. We have seen him, and for those of us who are leaders and elders, we can see the change in our state, and even the traditional rulers can confirm. They will no longer be harassed, there will be no longer any toxic situation where Commissioners and Permanent Secretaries will be harassed. Your Excellency, today, I join you and all the rest of our people of Khana Local Government and the entire Ogoni and our dear Senatorial District headquarters to thank God on your behalf for what the Lord is doing for you,” Secondus said.

Speaking further, the former PDP Chairman expressed confidence that Fubara will win his political battles, charging the Governor to remain strong and courageous.

In what was a veiled reference to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, Secondus said he was instrumental in the emergence of Wike as Governor of Rivers State, but the Minister is now arrogant as speaks as if he fell from heaven.

“All I can say is ‘Be strong and be courageous’ because you will overcome your enemies. Those who are shouting in Abuja, how were they made? It is God and some of us and the leaders that are seated here today that made it possible. And I can recall during my Thanksgiving service immediately after I was made National Chairman, he said clearly, that outside God, it was my humble self and other leaders that made it possible. Today, when he speaks, either in Abuja or here in Port Harcourt, he sounds as if he fell from Heaven down. Your Excellency, don’t worry, power comes from God.

“The same way God gave it to him through us, God has given it to you. And from what we have seen, you will excel because one thing that is important in the Ten Commandments is: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself. And you are spreading that part of the Ten Commandments around our State. You love everybody, you respect the leaders, you respect the elders, and all we have is to pray for you,” he said.

On his part, Fabura promised that his administration would continue to initiate projects which would impact the people of the state.

He expressed assurance that with God on his side, he would win every battle.

“My interest in this Senatorial District is genuine. It is not about what I intend to get, but I cannot be separated from this Senatorial District.

“The success of this Senatorial District is my success. So, I feel sorry and pity for those of you who have decided to be agents of destruction, more especially from this Senatorial District. You ask yourself, if they love you, why didn’t they better your lot before? That is the truth.

“Like I will tell all my supporters, God is our fighter. Don’t bother yourself about what you see today. What you should be worried about is what will happen that you’ve not yet seen. Not this one, if it’s this one, we have already conquered it,” the Governor submitted.
