Rivers State Commissioner for Information and Communications, Warisenibo Joseph Johnson, has declared that no matter how tense and fierce any war may rage, it cannot consume everyone it targets to destroy, urging all Rivers citizens who stand for truth and good governance not to cower into the antics and blackmail from those who do not mean well for the state.
Warisenibo Johnson, who made the declaration when the leadership and representatives of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Grassroots Support of Nigeria visited him at his office in Port Harcourt, the state capital recently, described Governor Siminialayi Fubara as ‘the Moses of present day Rivers State.’
He maintained that Governor Fubara, who puts the people of Rivers State first in all his decisions and policies, wants the support of everyone that believes in equity and the greater good of the state.
The Commissioner for Information and Communications, however, decried the absurdities observed in the relationship between the party, PDP and Governor Fubara and likened it to that of a child who is born and soon abandoned to an orphanage when both parents are still alive.

Warisenibo Johnson reiterated that only yesterday, some members of the party went to court to get an injunction restraining PDP from doing anything until the substantive matters before the courts are brought to bear….,” saying: “When you see PDP people abusing Governor Fubara, you will begin to wonder where the Governor belongs.”
The Information and Communications Commissioner then called on the members of the group, and indeed all Rivers people to continue to give Governor Fubara the needed support and that they should be actively involved in the forthcoming local government elections fixed for October 5, 2024, promising that when victory is won, those who never wavered in their stance and support would adequately get the benefits of their faithful support and dividends of democracy.
Speaking earlier in his address, State Coordinator of the group, Comrade Joseph Opusunju, said the group, which has been in existence since 2017 garnering grassroots support for PDP across the country, is pleased with governance style of Sir Siminialayi Fubara, who they described as ‘God’s mandated emancipator’ of Rivers State.
Comrade Opusunju said the group visited the Commissioner to congratulate him on his well deserved appointment, and to pledge their unflinching support for the state government, promising to continue to further mobilize the electorate at the grassroots level for Governor Fubara when the time comes.
