The lawmaker maintained that his constituents are behind the governor as he continues to initiate people-driven policies, programmes, and projects to better their lots.
Sokari who stated this during the flag-off of the Port Harcourt ring road project on Monday said the initiation and immediate commencement of the unprecedented project signifies the Governor's preparedness to lead the state to greater heights.

According to the lawmaker, "Rivers State needs more roads and other infrastructures, and this 50km road will be beneficial to our people.
"I am excited that Governor Fubara is following the unique footsteps of our leader and mentor, H.E Nyesom Ezebunwo Wike, GSSRS, who has over the years demonstrated excellent service, patriotism, and a high sense of integrity for all leaders across the board to emulate.
"Rivers State is blessed not only with natural resources but also with sterling chief executives. Rivers citizens and indeed Nigerians scored ex-Governor Wike very high for his extraordinary performance while in office.
"Fortunately, our state is now being led by his successor who has an amazing vision to develop our communities.
"There is no doubt that Governor Fubara is starting well. He is, as anticipated, showing that he knows our collective yearnings and aspirations and we are proud to have given him our mandate.
