Siminalayi Fubara, the suspended governor of Rivers State, has sent warm greetings and heartfelt wishes to children across the state in honour of Children’s Day 2025.
In his statement commemorating the event, Fubara called this year’s national theme “tapping the untapped natural treasure” a poignant reminder of the enormous and often underestimated potential that each child possesses.
This was stated in a statement released in Port Harcourt by his media aide, Nelson Chukwudi, and distributed to journalists.
The governor stated, “You, our children, are the most precious treasure we have. Your talents, dreams, energy, and creativity are limitless gifts waiting to be nurtured and unlocked for the good of our state and our nation.”
Fubara reaffirmed his administration’s steadfast commitment to children’s well-being and development, citing continuous investments in education, healthcare, and child protection.
He added that these initiatives are aimed at creating a future in which every child in Rivers State may thrive.
Fubara said, “We are creating platforms where your gifts can shine because we believe that every child in Rivers State has something unique to offer. Let this day remind you that you matter, your voice counts, and your dreams are valid.”
The governor also praised the critical role that parents, teachers, and carers play in raising the next generation and urged all stakeholders to continue working together to assist every child in discovering and realising their full potential.
Fubara added, “Happy Children’s Day, our beloved children. God bless you all, God bless Rivers State, and God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
