Obun emphasized that two bombings within 12 months are "one too many" and stressed the importance of Rivers State as the "umbilical cord that feeds Nigeria".
As the Chief Presiding Officer and Security Officer of the state, Obun urged Governor Siminalayi Fubara to take responsibility for ensuring the security of the state, emphasizing that the current situation is "not healthy" and "not good" for the state and the country at large.
In his words;
"The Governor must know that as Chief Presiding Officer and Security Officer of that state, two bombings in a State within 12 months is simply one too many. Whatever way and by whatever means. It's not healthy. It's not good and Rivers State is the umbilical cord that feeds Nigeria. So Rivers State is very important to us"
