https://www.beloud.com/news/137134581I think the governor of Rivers State Sir Siminalayi Fubara has really done well in his rulership as Rivers State governor despite the challenges he encountered both in the past, and at present.
In his rulership, civil servants were promoted, and their salary is also increased, pensioners, and retirees whose entitlement were denied he paid them all, and he also settled dept that was incured by the past government.
At present, many infrastructural development are going on within the state, and in various local government area.
There may not be perfection in his leadership, but considering what he has achieved since the inception of his tenure, he is a governor that deserves accolade.
In my own point of view, considering his achievement since he assumed office as a governor, and despite the challenges he encountered, I so much believe that this budget will be well utilized by the Rivers State governor Siminalayi Fubara if approved by the Rivers State national assembly.
