Siminalayi Fubara, governor of Rivers, says the 2027 elections will be a “smooth ride” for President Bola Tinubu.
Fubara spoke on Friday during the flag-off of the Rivers airport bypass project.
“Today, I am very happy. I am not just a member of the All Progressive Congress (APC), I am the number one. I have collected my [membership] card and the form is 001,” @SimFubaraKSC said.
“So, from this moment, I am there [in APC] with all my chest and heart. The message is clear: We are going to do everything to make the 2027 election for Mr president a smooth ride in Rivers state.
“How do we do it? It is with all of you here. With your support. The only way we can continue to tell Mr President thank you is to support him.”
Fubara defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the APC on December 9, days after 15 members of the Rivers state house of assembly, including Martin Awaewhule, the speaker, joined the ruling party.
