Our people are peace-loving citizens and advocates of peaceful co-existence wherever we are. We sincerely commend and support His Excellency, Sir Siminalayi Fubara in his quest to give Rivers people and residents alike good governance and promote love among all residents and their host communities in the state.
We strongly reassure His Excellency of our unalloyed support”, the Chairman of Arewa Community, Alh Jinjiri B. Mato declared.
