A Political tensions in Rivers State have taken another turn after political commentator Jumbo revealed fresh insights into the behind-the-scenes negotiations that led to the selection of Governor Siminalayi Fubara. Speaking in an exclusive interview on Thursday, Jumbo disclosed that the decision to support Fubara’s candidacy was made with the understanding that he would continue the policies of his predecessor, Nyesom Wike.
“When we agreed together and put Fubara, he promised to continue from where Wike stopped,” Jumbo stated, raising questions about the direction of the state’s leadership under the new governor. According to Jumbo, Fubara had assured stakeholders that his administration would build upon Wike’s achievements, particularly in infrastructural development and urban renewal, which defined Wike’s time in office.
However, Jumbo hinted that there might be growing concerns among some key figures who helped bring Fubara into power. He suggested that these stakeholders are now unhappy with the governor’s current leadership style, which they feel deviates from the expected path.
This statement has fueled ongoing speculation about internal rifts within the Rivers State government. Critics have raised concerns that if Fubara does not live up to his promises, it could lead to instability within his administration. There have been whispers of potential opposition from those who feel let down by Fubara’s perceived failure to align with the legacy of his predecessor.
As the situation continues to unfold, all eyes are on Governor Fubara to see if he can fulfill the promises made during his rise to power and maintain the political alliances that helped secure his position.
