I’ll Ensure Tinubu Wins, Power Remains in Our Bloc – Fubara

Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara has vowed to secure victory for President Bola Tinubu in the upcoming elections, pledging that political power will remain within their camp under the leadership of Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike.

Fubara made the commitment on Tuesday during the unveiling of the Rivers Rainbow Coalition candidates.

“I will do everything within my power to ensure that we have victory, not just for Mr. President who has stood for me in my most difficult time, but also to ensure that this power still remains in our own block,” Fubara said.

“That it doesn’t go to any other place apart from where it is still standing, which is under the leadership of His Excellency Nyesom Wike.” 

He used the event to address his supporters, urging them to stop referring to him as their primary leader.

“I’m aware there are some issues when some persons who followed me when we had the crisis… you say, my leader, my leader, ” Fubara said.

“We are now in one house. And because we have one house, there is no issue about who is the leader. I might be your oga, but we have a common leader now.”

He credited the coalition’s leadership for his ascension to office, stating, “I wouldn’t have been the governor of Rivers State if God Almighty had not passed through our leader to make it possible.”

Fubara admitted to Tinubu’s backing during his recent political turmoil and committed to delivering the state for the president’s camp.
