In statement released in the early hours of Sunday by his Chief Press Secretary, Nelson Chukwudi, Fubara also anchored his intending victory on the support of the people of Rivers State.
According to Fubara: “And not just because I want to accept it, I get stronger in this course every day when I look at the support I am getting from the true Rivers people.
“So, it is not me being strong. My strength is drawn from every one of you who is here. You gave me the encouragement; you did the work for me; you made the calls for me. So, why won’t I stand up for you?
“But we also believe strongly that the ultimate game changer, the ultimate liberator, and the ultimate fighter still remains God Almighty. And because we have Him on our side, victory is assured.”
There has been a rift between Fubara and Wike over the control of Rivers State political resources and structure.
