Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara has donated N50 million to the St. Paul’s Nyemoni Lutheran Cathedral in Abonnema Town, Akuku-Toru Local Government Area of the state as support of the state Government to advance the work of evangelism of the church.
Fubara made the donation at the Special Thanksgiving Service organised in honour of Dr. Tammy Wenike Danagogo on Sunday.
Speaking, during the service, the state governor, commended Danagogo for standing by him, describing him as a dependable ally. He revealed that Danagogo was issued an ultimatum to resign his appointment during the heat of the crisis, but refused and decided to stand by him.
Governor Fubara described Dr Danagogo as a man of great conviction, forthright, dependable, and leaves no person in doubt on where he stands on any issue considered as right and just.
The Governor said: “He is telling you the story of how he was re-appointed. I don’t know why he didn’t add the story that he was also compelled, given ultimatum, to resign.
“It takes a man who believes in something; it takes a man who is honourable and has integrity to stand by you. I want to say that this administration that I am leading will stand by you.
“I am here with our leaders, the real leaders of this State, not the Abuja leaders. These are the leaders that have control of their areas, their territories. It’s only one that lost territory that runs away. So, we have come to this kingdom to celebrate our brother, to tell him that we are with him, because he also chose to be with us. That is the truth.”
