Fubara also told the congregation that his family is suffering due to his position as the governor of Rivers State
Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State has acknowledged that President Bola Tinubu’s fatherly support towards him is the reason he is still the number one citizen of the state.
He made this known on Sunday, during a special thanksgiving service at St. Paul’s Anglican Church, Opobo Town, in Opobo/Nkoro Local Government Area of the state.
He went on to tell the congregation that his family has been suffering due to his position as the governor of Rivers State.
He, however, appealed to them, saying they would have him back as soon as he had served the people of the state judiciously.
Speaking during the church event, Fubara said: “It has not been easy, I can say it. A lot of people who started this journey with us ought to have been here with us, unfortunately, they are not here. God knows why. We can’t question the Almighty.
“I’m happy to return this glory to God Almighty, to say thank you God, and give me extra energy to continue with the battle. But no battle can be bigger than God.
“I want to thank God first, our dear President, he’s been a great and wonderful father. He has supported and I can say it without being economical with the truth that we are standing here because of his support.
“I want to thank again, my family. They are suffering, that’s the truth because of this cause. You just have to be strong and understand that after a while, you’ll get me back. But for now, these people are the ones that own me.”
