The Rivers State government has clarified that Governor Siminalayi Fubara did not order the shutdown of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) or any other oil companies in the state.
In a statement signed by the Commissioner for Information and Communications, Warisenibo Joe Johnson, the government labeled the claims circulating on social media as false and a product of misinformation.
The statement emphasized that Governor Fubara is committed to lawful governance and did not consider such drastic measures.
Residents are encouraged to disregard the unverified reports as they do not reflect the governor’s intentions or actions.
