Former governor of Akwa Ibom state and Senate Minority Leader,
Godswill Akpabio, yesterday stated that Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers
State will overwhelmingly be voted in for a second term in the state on
the strength of his development strides.
Akpabio gave the assurance while commissioning 10 internal roads and 3
km Okposi Road in Omoku, Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni Local Government Area,
ONELGA, of the state in continuation of the celebration of three years
of Wike’s administration.
Senator Akpabio said: “Nobody changes a winning team. Therefore,
Governor Wike will enjoy the constitutional second term. This government
believes in transforming the landscape of Rivers State.
“I am proud of Wike and his team. The Federal Government must hear
that the projects by the Rivers governor have helped to protect the
nation’s economy. Wike is sustaining the economy of Nigeria through
projects that have enhanced peace in the oil bearing communities.”
Governor Wike, in his remarks, said: “We don’t play politics with
projects. Once the projects are vital to the development of an area, we
execute them for the benefit of the people.
“I promised the people of ONELGA that I will do everything possible
to ensure peace returns to the area. Today, banks are functional in the
town and the economy has been revived.”
