Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara has said his action of implementing the Presidential resolution is a mark of respect for Mr. President and should not be taken as a weakness if not he will surprise those thinking in that direction.
Governor Fubara stated this on Wednesday at Government House Gate when he addressed members of Rivers State Local Government Workers under the aegis of Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees (NULGE) who were on solidarity and thank you visit.
He noted that the resolution he is implementing is not constitutional, but a political solution to the crisis that erupted in the state some time ago.
“But let me say it here, if that action that I have accepted to follow will be taken for my weakness I will surprise them.”
Sir Fubara further assured the workers of the immediate implementation of their promotion, payment of gratuities, and the implementation of consolidated salary for grade level 17, stressing that he would liaise with the Accountant General for smooth payment.
He noted that their solidarity visit was a reflection of the mood of the people across the state for his implementing good policies and touching lives, rather than the misinterpretation of some people that they were being rented.
“It is not about any other thing, it is about the lives you touched genuinely. It is the policies that you ensured that were implemented without inducement. That is what you will be remembered for. I am happy standing with you, in ensuring that the N30,000 minimum wage has been implemented.”
The governor charged the workers to be law-abiding, brace themselves,p and do what is right always as he will continue to support them for their progress.

“Our policies and support will always be for the happiness of our people. I am indeed, happy that you have started enjoying what other people enjoyed several years ago.”
