Fubara expressed gratitude to workers for their contributions to the state’s development. He stated that civil servants have maintained peace and stability despite the political challenges facing Rivers State.

He assured that salaries have been paid promptly every month and pensions are being cleared. Fubara has also acknowledged the ongoing rehabilitation of the State Secretariat Complex to improve work conditions.

The political situation in Rivers State remains tense. The relationship between Fubara and his predecessor, Nyesom Wike, is described as frosty. Wike has not endorsed anyone to succeed Fubara but has hinted at a preferred successor.

Fubara is speculated to be preparing for the governorship race in 2027. However, the political dynamics leading up to these elections are uncertain and confusing.

The directive from President Bola Tinubu places governors above lawmakers, which may affect Fubara’s political standing. Observers note that this could have implications for his re-election efforts.

Fubara stated, “You chose service over strife. Rivers State owes you a debt of gratitude.” He emphasized that the prevailing peace in workplaces is a direct result of the mature leadership of organized labor.

The mood in Rivers State over the past year has been politically calm on the surface—yet uncertain and confusing beneath. As the 2027 elections approach, many are watching closely how these factors will influence Fubara’s bid for re-election.
