Siminalayi Fubara, governor of Rivers State, has withdrawn from the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship primary in the state.
Fubara announced his decision in a statement personally issued on Wednesday, explaining that his withdrawal was driven by conviction and a willingness to sacrifice for the peace and unity of the state.
“Let it be clearly understood that I stepped aside from participating in the upcoming River’s state Gubernatorial election not out of weakness, fear, or surrender, but out of conviction and sacrifice so that Rivers State may move forward in peace and unity and I remain committed to serving the good people of Rivers state till the end of my term,” the statement reads.
