Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has declared that unless the
APC Federal Government and her agents apologise for plotting and
executing evil against Rivers State, they will continue to falter in
governance.
He stated that as long as the APC Federal Government continues to execute
evil plots against Rivers people, they will never be able to conceptualize
meaningful projects.
He spoke on Boxing Day during a Special Meeting with Bolo people at the
Bolo Civic Centre, Ogo/Bolo Local Government Area .
He said: “Anything you do against Rivers State will affect the entire
Nigeria. When you see us cry, listen to Rivers State. Until they leave
this state alone, they will never know peace. When they try to distract
Rivers State, they will never be able to conceptualize projects.
“Until they come to apologise for plotting and executing evil against
Rivers State, they will continue to falter”.
He noted that despite the evil machinations of the APC, Rivers State
remains one of the very few flourishing states in the country. He said
APC states have gone under, grappling with the payment of salaries.
“I challenge the APC to go to their states and talk about projects, when
they cannot even pay salaries. Here we have paid salaries and pensions
and we are consistently rolling out projects, even during Christmas “, he
said.
He noted that the APC dislodged a son of the Niger Delta from the
Presidency, only to resort to excuses for their failures.
The governor called on the Federal Government to ensure that it uses funds
from the Excess Crude Account to address environmental problems in the
Niger Delta, the way it is doing for insurgency.
Governor Wike used the occasion to announce the approval of the
construction of the Internal Roads of Bolo town.
The governor also upgraded the stool of the Amayanabo of Bolo to a Second
Class Status.
Governor Wike lauded the Majority Whip of the Rivers State House of
Assembly, Hon Evans Bipi for the major constituency project in the area.
Earlier, Chief Victor Alabo who spoke on behalf of the Chief and Elders of
Bolo thanked Governor Wike for the numerous projects in the area.
He commended the Governor for funding the Bolo Civic Centre which is a
constituency project facilitated by the Majority Whip of the Rivers State
House of Assembly, Hon. Evans Bipi.
He announced that the Bolo people have endorsed Governor Wike for a second
term because of his outstanding developmental strides.
