Rivers Safe With Fubara As My Successor - Wike

The Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, has said the state would be safer in the hands of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Siminialayi Fubara.

Speaking at the Kelechi Nwogu Legacy Stadium’s campaign rally of Rivers PDP for Omuma Local Government Area on Monday, Wike said both the PDP guber candidate and his deputy are seasoned technocrats.

He said they have vast experience and capacity to consolidate on the gains made already while continuing in the same development trajectory.

“Nobody can take away this flag away from us. We are not second class citizen to anybody and we must continue to stand firm and make sure our state is protected.”

The governor also urged them to go and collect their Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs) because it is their power to resist those who failed in their vain attempt to use the military and the police to rig the 2019 general elections.

“Our power is our PVC. We will use it well on the 25 February and 11th March.

"Let me tell you, this election will not be like 2019 when they used soldiers and used police. It will not happen again”, he stressed.
