Akpabio’s Comments On Gov. Sim Fubara: A Misstep In Political Playbook by SimFubaraNews(op): 9:28pm On Dec 13, 2024
With all due respect to the Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio, his recent comments about Governor Sim Fubara at the birthday celebration of his friend, the Minister of F.C T, seem to have missed the mark. When he suggested that Governor Fubara should have “attempted poaching” Martins Amaewhule and his committee of friends, it raises several questions about his understanding of the political dynamics in Rivers State.

Why would a Governor engage Assembly members who have long vacated their seats? Poaching is not only illegal but also undermines the spirit of fair and accountable governance. It would be more fitting to employ more ethical and transparent methods in navigating the political landscape. Perhaps Senator Akpabio was misusing his words, but regardless, a leader of his stature should tread carefully with the language used in public glare.

Furthermore, the Senate President’s statement about the supposed rift between Governor Fubara and his predecessor seems out of touch with reality. Governor Fubara has consistently made it clear that he is not at odds with anyone. His focus remains on the well-being and development of Rivers State, and the people are in full support of his efforts. Suggesting otherwise seems to show a lack of understanding of the situation.

It’s also worth noting that Senator Akpabio himself had a rift with his now close friend, the Minister of F.C.T, in the past. If one should question whether it’s appropriate for two leaders to have differences, perhaps the Senate President should reflect on his own experiences before making such judgments.

In any case, Nigerians know that political alliances can be fleeting. The bond between Akpabio and his friend may not last forever, and that is something we all understand. But for now, Rivers people remain confident that Governor Sim Fubara is focused solely on what’s best for the state, regardless of any political distractions.

People don't know that Wike feud with Fubara is a blessing to the Nation. Wike would have been too difficult to deal with. Fubara has made him to understand that it is no longer business as usual.
