Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers state, has said that Nigeria will only succeed when the citizens support the President Bola Tinubu-led administration because if the country fails, it’s everyone’s failure.
A statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Nelson Chukwudi said the governor spoke when he received the House of Representatives Committee on Reformatory Institutions, led by its Chairman, Chinedu Ogah at the Government House in Port Harcourt on Monday.
Fubara urged all Nigerians to work together to sustain the country regardless of their ideological and cultural differences.
This comes as he called for speedy investigation of suspects arrested for crime and taken through the unimpeded process of legal trials to ensure that they did not eventually get dumped in the correctional centres unduly on the awaiting trial list.
Fubara said; “We all have to put hands together to support this administration of our President. Nigeria is a very big and complex society; with different ideologies, multi-cultural beliefs, and social differences, but we are all here as one because of the flag of Nigeria.
“So, what we need to do is to ensure that we work as one, on one common interest to make sure that we sustain this entity called Nigeria. If Nigeria succeeds, we all succeed. And Nigeria will only succeed when we support the President.
“If Nigeria fails, everybody fails. The sub-nationals, like Rivers State, and any other state will also fail. You can’t succeed just as a state. Your success must be extended to the centre.”
