Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara says he remains a member of the Peoples Democratic Party, following speculations that he has left the party.
The governor, said this when he hosted a delegation of the Board of Trustees of PDP at Government House in Port Harcourt on Tuesday.
He said, “Honestly speaking, if I was having any doubt about my membership first, of this great party, I think today, I have gotten a reconfirmation that I am still, not minding the drama around, a member of this party.
“And, I want to thank you for taking all the troubles to come to Rivers State to see the Governor and the supporters of the party genuinely.
“I am also happy that, for once, the leaders, the founding fathers of PDP, we can’t take it away from leaders like, Chief Bode George. We can’t take it away from Amino. You are the ones who sat down, who crafted the constitution of PDP, gave it the name, and nurtured it, it doesn’t matter the number of people who watered it, and it became what it is today
“I want to assure members of our party, genuine members of PDP that are here with us, that this is another hope to show that our decision to stand by the party, still standing by the party, is not a wrong decision.
“What I have said in Abuja is the same thing I say in Port Harcourt. If I have had any encounter with anybody in Lagos, I don’t think my story have changed.
“So, for those people outside who are carrying all sort of rumour and propaganda, at least this visit will rest those propaganda and to tell the world that we are and we still remain members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.”
