Governor Fubara to Swear in Newly Elected Local Government Chairmen Today
Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State is set to officiate the swearing-in ceremony for the newly elected local government chairmen today, Sunday, October 6, 2024.
The event will take place at the Executive Council Chambers located within the Government House in Port Harcourt, beginning at 4:00 PM.
The announcement was made public through a statement by Tammy Danagogo, the Secretary to the State Government.
This ceremony marks an important milestone for local governance in the state, as it follows the recent local government elections conducted by the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission (RSIEC).
In a significant outcome, the Action Peoples Party (APP) emerged victorious in 22 out of the 23 local government areas.
The impressive performance reflects the party’s stronghold and support within the region.
The official statement read: His Excellency, Sir Siminalayi Fubara, GSSRS, the Governor of Rivers State, will today swear in the newly elected Council Chairmen at the Executive Council Chambers, Government House, Port Harcourt, by 4:00 PM.
The newly elected chairmen are expected to arrive early, with each allowed to bring one guest, and should be seated by 3:30 PM to ensure a prompt start to the ceremony.
This event not only signifies a transition in local leadership but also presents an opportunity for the newly elected officials to outline their plans and commitments to their respective communities.
As they assume their roles, they will be tasked with addressing local issues and fostering development within the state.
Anambra State Commissioner for Information and Value Reorientation, Law Mefor, speaks on Peter Obi and shares that he made wonderful achievements as a governor and roots for him for the presidency.
“The intention of the Anambra State government is not to indict Peter Obi. Peter Obi did well as governor.
“There is no rift between Governor Soludo and Peter Obi. They are both in politics, and they have their interests to defend.”
Peter Obi makes headlines as he received huge recognition and a welcome in Delta State.
A crowd came out to support the politician and show their support for him ahead of the election next year.
They moved with the message, “Peter Obi will reset Nigeria, Peter Obi for president.” Many shared their beliefs that Peter Obi can truly help Nigeria. This has gained some attention, and people shared their thoughts.
Former President of the Nigerian Bar Association, Mazi Afam Osigwe, speaks on the election and a popular notion that is happening. He shared how some politicians depend on the courts to win their elections instead of the voters (the people).
“A judge once presented a paper called ‘The Judicialisation of the Electoral Process.’ He argued that because of the difficulty of proving non-compliance with the Electoral Act, the courts have gradually and increasingly usurped the role of the voters. I couldn’t agree more.”
“They believe that between polling units and collation centres—especially at night—miracles happen before daybreak. So why vote?” he asked.
