Speaking on SYMFONI, he referred to that moment by stating, “When I spoke at the New Year dinner, many people did not understand me,” a situation he said has shaped how his actions are now being interpreted.
Fubara explained that the misunderstanding surrounding his earlier speech was the reason he has remained quiet despite the growing political pressure in Rivers State.
He told the audience, “that is why I don’t shout or complain,” indicating that his silence should not be mistaken for weakness or retreat.
The governor linked his calm approach to a deeper source of strength that goes beyond politics, even as the impeachment notice continues to dominate public discourse.
According to him, “I know what I have,” a statement he used to underline his confidence in the face of the unfolding crisis.
He further clarified that what sustains him is not political authority or alliances but something he described as higher and more powerful.
In his words, “I know what is supreme — and that is God,” which he said gives him the ability to remain steady despite the uncertainty.
Fubara’s remarks came as political groups and lawmakers in Rivers continue to engage in heated exchanges following the move against his administration.
Referencing his New Year dinner message again, he maintained that “many people did not understand me,” suggesting that his intentions at the time were not fully grasped.
In the SYMFONI interview, the governor said his refusal to engage in public outbursts is deliberate, explaining, “that is why I don’t shout or complain,” even as the political environment becomes more charged.
He added that his personal awareness of what he carries has kept him from reacting emotionally to events surrounding the impeachment notice. As he put it, “I know what I have,” a line he repeated to emphasize his confidence during the crisis.
Fubara also used the opportunity to restate the spiritual basis of his composure, saying again, “what is supreme — and that is God,” which he described as his anchor at a time when political uncertainty continues to grow.
