Former Senate President, Senator David Mark has commended\u00a0 Rivers State
\nGovernor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike for being an\u00a0 agent of genuine development
\nfor the people of the state.<\/p>\n
This is as Governor\u00a0 Nyesom Ezenwo Wike declared that the PDP\u00a0 will
\ncontinue\u00a0 to\u00a0 solve the developmental challenges\u00a0 of\u00a0 the\u00a0 people by
\nkeeping\u00a0 campaign\u00a0 promises made to the people.<\/p>\n
Commissioning\u00a0 the 8-kilometre\u00a0 Ozuoba-Ogbogoro-Rumuolumeni road in
\nObio\/Akpor Local Government Area on Saturday,\u00a0 the former\u00a0 Senate
\nPresident\u00a0 described\u00a0 the\u00a0 governor as agent of “true change” who has
\nimproved the living condition\u00a0 of\u00a0 the\u00a0 people by his delivery\u00a0 of
\ndemocracy\u00a0 dividends.<\/p>\n
Senator Mark said that Governor\u00a0 Wike\u00a0 has used his mandate to positively
\nchange the developmental outlook\u00a0 of Rivers State,\u00a0 keeping\u00a0 his promises,
\ninstead of giving excuses for failure.<\/p>\n
Speaking\u00a0 on the projects delivery\u00a0 of Governor Wike ,\u00a0 Senator\u00a0 Mark said
\n: “so far,\u00a0 he has governed well , now people are beginning\u00a0 to see the
\nresults of the promises that he made.<\/p>\n
“He is not only keeping his promises , he also has\u00a0 the\u00a0 welfare of the
\npeople\u00a0 at heart. That is what governance\u00a0 is all about. Those who\u00a0 voted
\nhim are reaping\u00a0 in the benefits of democracy.<\/p>\n
“Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike is a man of\u00a0 action who keeps
\nto his words and promises. I want\u00a0 to\u00a0 thank you for\u00a0 keeping to your
\npromises.’<\/p>\n
He said\u00a0 all the PDP\u00a0 Governors\u00a0 have kept their\u00a0 promises, while those
\nwho\u00a0 promised change\u00a0 to Nigerians\u00a0 have failed\u00a0 to\u00a0 deliver.<\/p>\n
“I am a great advocate of change the change.\u00a0 Because what brought\u00a0 APC to
\npower is change. Now we have seen that change\u00a0 has not taken place. We
\nhave to change that change\u00a0 now. Why we must change\u00a0 the change\u00a0 is
\nbecause\u00a0 those who\u00a0 called for change\u00a0 are not keeping\u00a0 their promise”,
\nSenator Mark\u00a0 said.<\/p>\n
In his address, Governor\u00a0 Wike\u00a0 said that in his projects delivery
\nframework,\u00a0 he is not concerned\u00a0 about\u00a0 who awarded the project, but its
\nimpact\u00a0 on\u00a0 the\u00a0 lives of\u00a0 the people.<\/p>\n
He said: “For us, as PDP we knew there were problems before we made
\npledges. That is why\u00a0 we\u00a0 are\u00a0 resolving the problems that we met on
\nground . It does not matter the party you belong, we shall continue\u00a0 to
\ndeliver\u00a0 democracy\u00a0 dividends\u00a0 to all Rivers people ”<\/p>\n
He said\u00a0 that as a governor he will always work in line with\u00a0 the
\ncampaign\u00a0 promises he made , because\u00a0 the people have always\u00a0 supported
\nhim.<\/p>\n
“I pleaded with\u00a0 you\u00a0 to give me your\u00a0 mandate when I came here to
\ncampaign.\u00a0 Today, I am back\u00a0 to fulfill\u00a0 that pledge because\u00a0 you gave me
\nthe opportunity\u00a0 to\u00a0 serve”, the governor\u00a0 said.<\/p>\n
The governor\u00a0 reiterated his commitment\u00a0 to flush out cultists\u00a0 from the
\nstate, noting that security\u00a0 agencies\u00a0 have been given\u00a0 the\u00a0 free hand to
\ndeal decisively\u00a0 with cultists.<\/p>\n
He said: “Since they have said that I will not sleep, they will not sleep.
\nAnyone who is arrested, will be dealt with in line with\u00a0 the\u00a0 tenets of
\nthe law. Whether you belong to the PDP\u00a0 or APC,\u00a0 you will\u00a0 not be spared
\nif you are a cultist”.<\/p>\n
Works Commissioner,\u00a0 Bathuel Iheanyichukwu said\u00a0 the road was awarded by
\nthe previous administration,\u00a0 but abandoned\u00a0 at 30percent completion
\nstage.\u00a0 He said\u00a0 the road\u00a0 was impassable\u00a0 before\u00a0 Governor Wike
\nreconstructed\u00a0 it and revived economic\u00a0 activities\u00a0 in the area.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
