An environmental and human rights activist, Ann-Kio Briggs, says President Bola Tinubu has not done any favour to the people of Rivers State with the suspension of the emergency rule.

Briggs made the assertion on Thursday in Port Harcourt, saying President Tinubu unjustly declared the emergency rule in the state.

“But let’s not mistake one aspect of what has transpired. Fubara has always had the total organic support of the majority of the people of Rivers State of which, I am one of the majority of the women, from market women to all spheres of career women have supported the governor of Rivers state.

“And as you can see, the people of River State are still in support of Siminialayi Fubara. But now, whether that support that we have for him will be allowed to translate into good governance in the governance of the people, into peace, into security, into development that needs to be seen,” she said.

She said Tinubu has been the problem of the state, adding that he has not done any good to the people.
