The governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara, says the primary cause of the political crisis in the state is the struggle for control of state resources.

Fubara stated this at the 18th anniversary celebration of Omega Power Ministries (OPM) on Sunday, November 3.

In his words; “There is a reason for this crisis, and that reason is the control of the resources of Rivers State, Rivers state resources belong to you, and we will make sure that the resources are applied judiciously for the betterment of the state. What you owe us is just one thing: continue to pray for us. Let us not lose focus because we know the devil is always at war to derail people in governance.

Continue to pray for us because what is most important is the interest of the people here, and I believe that with your prayers, we will not lose focus and the purpose of governance will be achieved in Rivers state.”
