Sobomabo Jackrich, the leader of the
Simplicity Movement and a former loyal supporter of ex-Rivers State Governor
Nyesom Wike, has spoken about the ongoing political discord between Wike and
current Rivers Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
Jackrich expressed his view that Governor
Fubara is adopting a different leadership approach from his predecessor and
remains committed to maintaining peace and stability in the state.
In a video posted by Symfoni TV on their
YouTube channel from 5:04, Jackrich praised Governor
Fubara for his calm and collected leadership style, contrasting it with Wike’s
more confrontational methods.
According to him, Fubara’s approach is geared
toward avoiding the kind of volatile political atmosphere that had previously
characterised Rivers State under Wike.
Jackrich pointed out that Fubara’s leadership
is rooted in a desire to maintain peace and ensure stability in the state
rather than follow Wike’s footsteps, which were often marked by political
tension and forceful measures.
Jackrich also implied that Wike’s influence
might have led Fubara down a more aggressive political path, but Fubara
consciously chose to prioritize peace.
He emphasized that Fubara is not interested in
replicating the controversial aspects of Wike’s administration, which often
stirred up conflict and division in the state.
He highlighted that if Fubara had decided to employ the same political strategies as Wike, the
current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) would likely not feel
comfortable returning to Rivers State.
Jackrich said, “Fubara doesn’t want to do what
you did; otherwise, by now you won’t be able to come to Rivers from Abuja
again.
“Are these not the people who made Amaechi
afraid to enter Rivers State? Are they not the ones who destroyed people’s
structures?”
