Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State on Sunday said God allowed the crisis in the state to perfect ‘political freedom’.

 

This was as Fubara declared that rather than getting weak, he’s getting stronger daily.

 

He spoke during a thanksgiving service to celebrate the appointment of His Royal Majesty, Eze Chike Worlu Wodo, as the Chairman of Rivers State Traditional Rulers Council at the Shepard’s Hill Parish of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG).

 

The governor said he and his team has not been overwhelmed due to the involvement of God.

 

He said, “I also believe that what you are calling trouble is not trouble to me. I see it as God’s purpose for a new direction for our State.

 

“He has taken us higher, right from the first day, which is why, rather than getting weak, we are getting stronger and bolder everyday.

 

“We want to finish our work, and our story will be those who led with the fear of God. We might not be perfect in everything, but in the end, there should be a reason why the angels should not allow our bodies to be taken by the devil.”

 

This is coming amid Fubara’s face-off with his predecessor, Minister of Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike.

 

Fubara and Wike have been at loggerheads over the political structure of the state.
