As the political crisis rocking the oil rich Rivers state festers, a founding member and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and coordinator of the Concerned Rivers for Peace Initiative (CRPI), Ambassador Fubara Dagogo has appealed to the warring factions to refrain from the ongoing attacks on each other, and focus on measures that could return the state to it’s people.
It could be recalled that President Bola Tinubu recently declared a state of emergency in Rivers state, following the political crisis that allegedly led to bombing of oil sites and alleged violent destruction of public orders.
President Tinubu also appointed former Chief of Naval Staff, Retired Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas, from Akwa Ibom state as the Sole Administrator, following his suspension of the State governor, Siminaliayi Fubara and members of the Rivers state House of Assembly.
“In view of the caliber of very prominent citizens produced by the state, it is sad that the state is allowed to go into crisis for several months following the disagreement between the suspended governor Fubara and his estranged political God-father and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Chief Nyesom Wike”.
Ambassador Dagogo pleaded with the actors to restrict themselves to measures that would lead to the reclaiming of the state, instead of the ongoing allegations and counter allegations from both factions to the crisis.
The APC chieftain similarly called on the newly appointed Sole Administrator to see his appointment as a call to contribute to the process of restoring peace to Rivers state, adding that history will not forget him if he really actualizes that noble task.
Fubara equally called on President Bola Tinubu to continue in his fatherly role to ensure a lasting peace in the crisis ridden Rivers state and save the state from degenerating into anarchy and killings, following the lingering political conflict.
He said, “this is the time for all concerned stakeholders in our dear Rivers state to join hands to reclaim the state.
“Rivers has always remained the economic hub of Nigeria with its numerous oil wealth that has driven the nations economy, it is disheartening that rather than reaping from its God given strategic location in Nigeria, stakeholders have allowed sentiments and selfish pursuits to deny the citizens the dividends of its strategic location.
“At this present situation, we must avoid camps, factions and sentiments, and forge a United front to reclaim our dear state. It’s regrettable that Rivers state with its array of award winning political actors and administrators, has been thrown into an emergency rule, under a military administrator.
“I must also while thumbing up president Tinubu for his fatherly intervention, call on the sole administrator, to see his appointment as a call to unleash his expertise and experience to return peace to the troubled state . This is an opportunity for him to put his name in the positive side of the history of the state, after his exploits in the military.
“A peaceful Rivers state would no doubt be in the best interest of all well meaning citizens of the state and above all His Excellency President Tinubu ahead of his re-election bid in 2027. APC would really need the Rivers vote to consolidate on the Renewed Hope Agenda in the upcoming election”, Ambassador Fubara Dagogo warned.
