As reported by The Nation, Lady Fubara, who spoke at the 2024 Rivers Women Converge in Port Harcourt, Rivers state capital, declared that their prayers had been answered.

She said:

“I don’t have much to say rather than that I am excited. Whenever I come into the presence of the Lord, I am so happy. I am so glad, and I always dance. I love praising God. I cannot come here without dancing because I am in the presence of the Lord.”

Lady Fubara, while commending the convener of the programme for bringing women together, pleaded with the women not to stop praying for the well-being of the state, because, according to her, prayers make things better and faster.

Speaking further, the governor's wife said she was not perturbed over the forthcoming October 5 Local Government elections because she was convinced that God was already working behind the scenes, The Punch reported.
