Ambassador Blessing Fubara Senior, brother of Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has declared his intention to contest the 2027 Rivers State governorship election under the platform of the Nigerian Democratic Congress, pledging to serve only one term if elected.
In a declaration marked by strong political undertones, Fubara Senior called for what he described as a “total uprising” to reclaim governance in Rivers State, insisting that the state had suffered economic and political decline.
“My dear Rivers people, my name is Ambassador Blessing Fubara Senior. I stand before you today with profound gratitude to God Almighty and utmost humility to you, offering myself, ready, competent, and energetic to serve,” he said.
He said the state stands on a ground that is competent, reliable and reputable to restore the soul of Nigeria and Rivers State, alleging that the state had lost opportunities, investments and dignity over time.
