Rivers State Governor,
Sir Siminalayi Fubara, has expressed gratitude, first to God for the grace given to him to pull through the troubling political crisis, steadied governance, and truly celebrate a fruitful first year in office.
Secondly, Governor Fubara thanked all Rivers people for their trust, support, and various levels of contributions that strengthened the capacity of the government to commit to the successes that have been recorded.
Governor Fubara expressed gratitude at the Special Thanksgiving Service to mark his First Year in Office Anniversary, which was held at St. Paul’s Anglican Church, Garrison Junction in Port Harcourt on Sunday.
Specifically, Governor Fubara recalled that a few months ago, nobody had believed that it was going to be possible for them to come to church in gratitude to return thanks to Him for how they were able to navigate through the troubled waters.
Governor Fubara said he is in the church today for the singular reason, and importantly so, to especially ascribe all the glory and honor to God who has made the day possible.
The Rivers State Governor sang a popular praise song by Nathaniel Bassey, “You’re God from beginning to the end, there is no place for argument, you are God all by yourself”, and said God is God by Himself and nobody needs to take the glory of God to himself.
He said: “What the devil thought it was evil they were going to inflict on us, God turned it to blessing and good.
Delivering the sermon at the service, Bishop of the Diocese of Niger Delta North, Right Reverend Wisdom Ihunwo, preached on the importance of people having grateful hearts when coming to God for thanksgiving.
Bishop Ihunwo said more than just being alive, God gives desired victories over the most troubling life challenges people face, and advised that they should always attribute their success to Him because without Him nothing can be achieved.
The Bishop assured that God will continue to crush those who are troubling Rivers people and strengthen the Federal Government to improve the national economy and reduce hunger in the country.
He said, “It is not by what we are doing. We have peace, and we didn’t work for it. What we are also seeing today in our country is that God is showing us mercy. But for the grace of God, this country would have been burning like fire.
The highlights of the event were general thanksgiving, and special prayers said for Governor Fubara and his family, Rivers State, the Federal Government, the national economy, and Nigerians alike.
