According to him, politics should not be synonymous with violence but a contest of ideas without permanent enemies or friends.<\/p>\n<p>The governor applauded the Commission for its resilience in completing the task despite attempts to derail the work, including legal challenges and other forms of obstruction.<\/p>\n<p>He wondered why anyone would oppose a Commission dedicated to uncovering the truth and expressed disbelief that individuals who invested in building council complexes could later destroy their own legacies.<\/p>\n<p>Citing past incidents, Fubara linked those responsible for the recent attacks on council buildings to previous acts of violence, including the bombing of courts before the 2015 elections.<\/p>\n<p>While restating his stance on accountability, the governor affirmed that no one, including himself, is above the law.<\/p>\n<p>The chairman of the seven-member Commission, Justice Ibiwengi Minakiri detailed the methodology used to compile the report.<\/p>\n<p>She noted that visits to affected local government areas \u2014 Khana, Eleme, Ikwerre, Emohua, and Obio\/Akpor \u2013 were instrumental in verifying claims from submitted memoranda.<\/p>\n<p>According to Justice Minakiri, the Commission\u2019s proceedings revealed hidden facts about the state and were concluded on November 28, within the stipulated 30 days assigned by the governor.<\/p>\n<p>The report, presented in four volumes, includes memoranda, exhibits, records of proceedings, and findings.<\/p>\n<p>Justice Minakiri urged Fubara to implement the recommendations to ensure lasting peace in the state.<\/p>\n<p>She said some individuals indicted in the memoranda failed to appear before the Commission for their defence.<\/p>\n<p>She concluded by expressing hope that the report\u2019s implementation would deter future violence and restore stability across Rivers State.<\/p><\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State has vowed to implement the report of the State Commission of Inquiry on the destruction of local government secretariats, no matter who is involved.&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":109813,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-115516","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
