Gov. Wike
Rivers State Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has declared that his administration started the process of infrastructural development afresh because the preceding administration of Rotimi Amaechi squandered the resources that accrued to the state in its eight years in charge.
Governor Wike was speaking on Sunday during the 10th Anniversary Thanksgiving Service of the Omega Power Ministry in Port Harcourt and the Harvest Thanksgiving of Saint Luke Anglican Church, Rumuadaolu.
He said it was Amaechi’s eight years of “misrule” that made it impossible for the former governor to construct a road even to the hometown of Amaechi’s political mentor, Chief Godspower Ake of the APC.
The governor urged the people of Rivers State to rise up and pray to God to handle those working with outsiders to disrupt the political process and deny the Rivers people representation in the Senate.
At Saint Luke Anglican Church, Governor Wike accused his predecessor of squandering the money of the people of Rivers State to sponsor elections in other places, saying it was the reason his administration was starting infrastructure development afresh.
“For eight years, at a time that the state got approximately N20billion monthly, that administration failed to develop critical infrastructure,” he stated.
