Fubara expressed pessimism that the lingering political crisis currently rocking the state cannot be resolved anytime soon.
Apparently referring to Wike, the governor accused his opponents of deliberately sabotaging his administration while he was hopeful that the issue in the state would be resolved amicably.
Governor Fubara vowed to make tough decisions moving forward no matter how they would be perceived by the public.
Fubara also responded to recent comments by former Attorney General Zacchaeus Adangor, SAN, and his counterpart in the Ministry of Works Alabo George-Kelly.
According to the governor, the former attorney general alongside other critics of his administration have been sabotaging the progress of his government by filing nolle prosequi against the interest of the state.
