RIVERS STATE @ 58: CELEBRATING UNITY, PEACE & PROGRESS!
It’s a profound sense of pride and gratitude to God, and on behalf of the traditional rulers, chiefs, leaders, women, youths and good people of Port Harcourt City Local Government Area (Phaiga), 1 heartily extend warm felicitations to the Govemment and people of Rivers State on the momentous celebration of the 58th anniversary of our dear state.
I also seize this opportunity to commend His Excellency, Vice Admiral (Rtd) Ibok-Ete Ekwe Ibas, CFR, Sole Administrator of Rivers State, for his resolute commitment, focused, visionary, and stabilising leadership. In a short, but impactful period, he has exemplified courage, calm, candour and clarity in governance, restoring confidence, peace and security, strengthening institutions and fostering unity across divides. He has also reenergised our collective resolve towards harmonious co-existence, progress and prosperity
Together, let us write a new chapter of optimism, equity, justice and sustainable development. As we look to the future, may this anniversary reawaken our shared purpose to build a united, secure and prosperous Rivers State.
