Eid Meeting: Fubara Pledges Protection For All Rivers Residents—-Gov. Siminalayi Fubara has reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to safeguarding lives and property of all residents, including the Muslim community in Rivers.

Fubara made the pledge on Friday in Port Harcourt while receiving a delegation of the Muslim ummah, led by Alhaji Nasir Uhor.

The delegation, including Islamic clerics and Arewa community leaders, visited the governor as part of Eid-el-Fitr celebrations.

Fubara said every resident, regardless of origin or religion, was regarded as an indigene of Rivers.

“This is because they live, conduct business and contribute to the socio-economic development of Rivers.

“In essence, you are Rivers indigenes, even if not by birth.

“Because you live here, have your homes and children here, government will protect your lives and property.

“We will do our best to make Rivers safe for everyone living and doing business here,” he said.

Fubara commended the Muslim community’s dedication and steadfastness during the Ramadan fast.

On farmer-herder tensions, he noted Rivers has remained peaceful through strategic engagement and coordination with security agencies.

He urged Islamic leaders to strengthen internal communication to sustain peace among their members.

“It is important leaders engage their people to conduct themselves properly in their communities.

“You are their leaders, so guide them, so we all work together for the state’s peace,” he said.

Fubara assured the delegation that their requests were under review and would be addressed in line with available resources.

Uhor thanked the governor for his inclusiveness and for granting the delegation audience.

He urged the government to build a central mosque in Port Harcourt and return the Muslim cemetery section to the council.

“We also appeal for land allocation for a mosque at Rivers State University,” he said

Anfield Showdown Brewing as Enzo Fernandez vs Dominik Szoboszlai Comparison Heats Up—-A fierce online debate has erupted ahead of the Premier League clash between Liverpool FC and Chelsea FC, with fans comparing the performances of Enzo Fernández and Dominik Szoboszlai.

The discussion gained traction after a stats graphic shared by Premier League India asked fans to pick between the two midfielders ahead of the highly anticipated encounter at Anfield.

Both players have made 33 Premier League appearances this season, but the numbers reveal contrasting strengths in their games.

Szoboszlai has registered six goals and five assists for Liverpool, highlighting his attacking influence and ability to contribute in the final third during the Reds’ European football qualification.

Enzo, meanwhile, has recorded eight goals and three assists for Chelsea while also dominating creatively with an impressive 24 through balls compared to Szoboszlai’s six.

The midfield battle appears even tighter defensively and physically, with Enzo narrowly edging duels won at 125 compared to Szoboszlai’s 124.
