Rivers State women, under the auspices of the Rivers Women Unite for Sim, RWUS, has said that they are fully aligned with the suspended Governor Siminalayi Fubara’s call for peace and would support him through any political transition.

The group said this on Sunday in Port Harcourt when it held a thanksgiving service in celebration of the recent reconciliation between Fubara and the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.

The women, dressed in pink attire symbolizing unity and joy, sang, danced, and offered prayers of gratitude for what they described as a long-awaited return to peace in the state.

They said the reconciliation was a welcome development that signaled a turning point for the political stability of Rivers State, thanking President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Governor Fubara, and Minister Wike for prioritizing the interest of the state.

One of the leaders of the group, Florence Itamunoala, a retired Director at the Ministry of Justice, expressed belief in Fubara’s leadership, saying the reconciliation is good for the people of the state.

“He has asked us to embrace peace, and we will follow him anywhere. We believe in his leadership, and we know this reconciliation is for the good of the Rivers people,” she said.

The spiritual leader of the group, Pastor Nancy Nwankwo, also led prayers for the Governor’s return to office, expressing optimism that the political turbulence would soon be behind the state.

The women described the peace deal as not just a political milestone but a spiritual victory for the state, calling on residents to remain calm and united as Rivers charts a new course forward.
