Gov Sim Fubara of Rivers State has addressed the world and assured that his team is prepared to resist any attempt to stop the local council election slated for tomorrow, Saturday, October 5, 2024.
In what he termed a World Press Conference at the Government House in Port Harcourt Friday morning, the first of its kind for a governor that rarely addresses the external press, Gov Fubara explained how he stormed the election agency early this morning.
Reiterating his resolve to see the election through despite the vehement challenge by the FCT Minister’s camp (section of the APC and PDP), Fubara said once again there is no going back on Saturday’s council elections.
He stated that any attempt to stop the exercise would be resisted by the state government.
The governor stated that despite the Thursday night withdrawal from the exercise by the police, the election would go as other security agencies were on the ground to provide security.

He declared: “Election on Saturday is sacrosanct, any attempt or group of attempts to stop this election, we will resist it”.
