Without mentioning his political godfather, Mr Nyesom Wike, Governor Simi Fubara was talking tough on Monday morning over alleged plots to remove him saying that he was ready to die in the struggle for Rivers State following assertions that police shot at him.
He spoke while inspecting the burnt Rivers State Assembly complex which was destroyed by political thugs late on Sunday night as the political differences between him and Wike reportedly widened.

Speaking to newsmen, Fubara said:
(House of Assembly) destroyed just to please somebody. It is unfortunate. From what I am seeing, the security is even compromised. They were shooting at me, DC Operations was shooting at me directly, but it doesn’t matter, somebody will die one day. When people hear Fubara, they will say who is this Fubara? They will be told he was killed for a struggle. I am not planning anything against anybody, but I don’t know where all these things are coming from. I heard that some people gathered here to do something (removal of House Leader), that is purely rubbish. You cannot sit when there is a problem and say you are doing something. What are you doing?
“I am the Chief Security Officer, I am the head of the government….” Fubara said as he lamented that police shot at him over the power struggle with Wike.
Sim Fubara talks tough. Security agents are compromised, most especially the @PoliceNG.
