00:00Governor Simalae Fubara has declared that the political crisis in River State is over.
00:06But beyond the symbolism of reconciliation lies a more significant political question,
00:13what are the times of the peace?
00:15Fubara's endorsement of President Bola Mentional's second-term ambition
00:20and his support for Okechinda as his successor suggests a political re-alarming rather than end to hostility.
00:29Supporters may view the move as a pragmatic decision to restore stability after months of political uncertainties.
00:38Critics, however, argue that it reflects political concession in exchange for federal backing.
00:44Fubara's own message to his supporters saying what you lose here, you gain here.
00:49Capture the logic behind the compromise.
00:52Whether that bargain strengthens River State or merely redistributes political influence remains to be seen.
01:00What matters now is if this new alignment brings better governance and benefits to River State.
01:07Because political peace is meaningful only when it improves the lives of the people it is meant to serve.
01:14And if you have confidence in terms of the new alignment that you can do to serve.
01:15We do the work that we do that manually.
01:15We do that when it comes to the music plan that we do to work.
01:17We do that really do that.
