The sole administrator of Rivers State, retired Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ibas, has assured residents that his role is non-political and aimed at restoring governance and stability.

In a state broadcast on Thursday, Ibas, who officially commenced his duties at Government House, Port Harcourt, reaffirmed his commitment to safeguarding civil liberties and ensuring citizens’ safety.

However, he issued a strong warning against crude oil sabotage and violence, urging residents to reject any attempts to reignite past hostilities.

He described the prolonged political crisis as a major setback for governance and democracy in the state and acknowledged the hardships families and businesses have endured due to the ongoing uncertainty.

Ibas commended President Bola Tinubu for his decisive action in declaring a state of emergency in Rivers, calling it a necessary step to restore order and revive economic activity.

He assured that he would uphold the rule of law, but warned that lawlessness and violence would not be tolerated.

“As a son of the Niger Delta, I am one of you. I feel the weight of this crisis on families, businesses, and the future of our people.

“My mandate is clear: to restore law and order, ensure stability, and create an enabling environment for economic growth.

“But this mission requires collective support from all stakeholders, regardless of political affiliation or ethnicity,” he said.

He revealed that a State Security Council meeting had been convened, during which strategic measures were outlined to de-escalate tensions and prevent further conflict.

Expressing gratitude to President Tinubu for entrusting him with the responsibility, Ibas also acknowledged the National Assembly for approving the emergency declaration.

Ibas added: “I will work closely with the national leadership under the guidance of the President. I am optimistic that Rivers State will emerge stronger and greater.
