Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara has said that his administration will continue to prioritise the interest of the people of the state under the mantra: ‘Rivers First’.
Fubara stated this during the praise night organised on Friday by the state government to mark his first year in office, in Port Harcourt.
The governor, represented by his deputy, Ngozi Odu, called for the support of the people, in moving the state forward.
He urged the people to contribute their quota to assist the administration in achieving its vision of advancing the fortunes of the state.
The governor prayed that God would continue to move mountains on the path of the state, and make it better.
Fubara noted with happiness the spiritual ministrations and prophetic declarations during the event.
He said they were manifestations of the victory which God had sealed in the state.
“We shall continue to have this shared vision of putting Rivers state first, but we can’t do it alone.
“We need all of you, big and small, to be there for us, to chip in the little or the much you can, and at the end of this our first tenure, you will see where God will take Rivers state.”
Fubara thanked everyone who graced the occasion, especially the artistes, for the performances which included singing and dancing.
“I think there were spiritual ministrations that they have made, and they have also made prophetic declarations that we all said amen to,” he said.
The event featured praise and worship songs in appreciation to God for the first year of Fubara, The News Agency of Nigeria reports.
Among the dignitaries who graced the occasion were the governor’s wife, Lady Valarie Fubara; former Gov. Peter Odili and his wife, retired Justice Mary Odili; and Rivers State Chief Judge, Justice Simeon Amadi
