A large group of women in Rivers State have once again taken to the streets of Port Harcourt to demand the restoration of democracy and express their support for Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
Chanting solidarity songs and carrying placards, the women declared their stance clearly with the message, “We want Sim.”
The protesters, dressed mostly in red, said their demonstration was aimed at defending the mandate freely given to Governor Fubara by the people during the last election.
They accused political actors of trying to destabilize governance in the state and suppress the will of the people.
“We are tired of the political drama. What we want is peace, good governance and the man we elected to continue his work. We want Sim!” one of the protesters shouted.
This is not the first time women in the state have come out in protest amid the ongoing political tension in Rivers.
Their message remains consistent—support for Governor Fubara and a call for an end to political interference that threatens the state’s democratic process.
