Rivers State governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has pledged to create the right political climate in Rivers State, ensuring that all political parties can operate freely to engage with the government and offer credible opposition.
Governor Fubara made this commitment yesterday during a meeting with the leadership of the Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC), Rivers State Chapter, led by its Chairman, Sensei Solsuema Osaro, at the Government House in Port Harcourt.
Governor Fubara welcomed criticism as a means to improve governance, stating, “Even when you leave here, criticise me; I don’t have a problem with that; it is meant to spur me to do well.”
He commended IPAC for identifying with his administration and pledged to consult with them on important matters, including appointments.
