Rivers Crisis: SSG Warns Against Misinterpreting Fubara's Simplicity as Weakness

 

According to DAILY POST, Rivers State Secretary Tammy Danagogo has warned against misinterpreting Governor Siminalayi Fubara's placid demeanour as a sign of weakness. This declaration comes after criticism from political opponents, particularly Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory. Critics have questioned Danagogo's role in Fubara's government, particularly his choice to sign a letter inviting MPs to meet with the governor. Wike and others regarded the letter as ineffective. In a recent engagement with journalists during the launching of Okrika Grammar School, Danagogo justified his behaviour, claiming that initiating an informal meeting through a letter was totally appropriate and fell under his formal responsibilities.  He emphasised that such correspondence was an expected aspect of his job and not an overreach.  Danagogo also noted that he held comparable responsibilities in the previous administration.  He stated that his words were meant to rectify errors rather than to incite political rivalry.  The SSG also thanked Governor Fubara for remaining calm in the face of provocations, citing an occasion in which entry to the state legislature complex was refused, preventing the governor from presenting the budget.
