Dr Peter Odili, former Rivers State Governor, has affirmed Governor Siminalayi Fubara as the political leader of Rivers State. This comes amidst the political crisis in the state.

Odili was a guest at an event in Port-Harcourt on Tuesday during he encouraged the Governor to stand strong as the people of Rivers are with him.
This comes after the rift between the Governor and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Mr Nyesom Wike.
Odili said,
“Your people are with you, and they have asked me to tell you that you are the political leader of Rivers State.
“Rivers people said that wherever you go, we will go with you. Wherever you stand, we will stand with you. You are standing on firm ground. Stand there and hold on to God.”
