  "account": "Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara has declared that supporters who refuse to join the Rainbow Coalition can leave, as his stance on rejoining his political family is firm. During the inauguration of the campaign council in Port Harcourt, Fubara congratulated the selected members of the coalition, urging those not chosen to remain positive, as sub-committees and potential list updates were still possible. However, he cautioned against divided loyalty, urging supporters to remain committed to the coalition. Fubara emphasized the importance of sincere effort and urged supporters not to claim loyalty to him while engaging in contrary activities. He acknowledged the challenging political climate in the state but encouraged supporters to focus on the future and the potential for success. Fubara praised Nyesom Wike, the Coordinator of the Rivers State Presidential Campaign Council, and other leaders for their contributions to the establishment of the coalition. Wike, who is also the National Leader of the PDP/Rainbow Coalition, announced that campaign councils would soon be established across the state's 23 local government areas, shifting focus from traditional campaign rallies to community gatherings and informal meetings.",
