WE STARTED INFRASTRUCTURAL DEVELOPMENT AFRESH BECAUSE AMAECHI SQUANDERED RIVERS FUNDS SAYS GOVERNOR WIKE
Rivers
State Governor , Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has declared that the
administration started the process of infrastructural development afresh
because the immediate past administration of Rotimi Amaechi squandered
resources that accrued to the state under his eight years of misrule.
He
said it was Amaechi’s eight years of misrule that made it impossible
for the former governor to construct a road to the hometown of his
political mentor , Chief Godspower Ake of the APC .
The governor
also 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 at the Senate
Governor
Wike spoke 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.
At the Saint Luke Anglican Church , Governor Wike said :
"Amaechi squandered the money of our people, using state resources to sponsor elections in other places.
"Because
of the funds squandered by Amaechi, we are starting the development of
sstatewide infrastructure afresh. For eight years, at a time that the
state got approximately N20billion monthly, that administration failed
to develop critical infrastructure.
"G..U Ake was Amaechi’s
political mentor. Yet for eight years, he denied his community the
required access road. For us, we will continue to ensure the development
of infrastructure in all communities of Rivers State , irrespective of
the political leaning of the people ".
Speaking at the Omega
Power Ministry , Governor Wike , Governor Wike said he has presented the
political problem of the state before God, urging all Christians to
pray fervently for the sustenance of the state .
He said: "The same God who ensured that we overcame them in 2015, will answer our prayers".
The
governor commended the General Overseer of Omega Power Ministry ,
Apostle Chibuzor Chinyere for his commitment to the welfare of the less
privileged .
In his remarks , General Overseer of the Omega Power
Ministry , Apostle Chibuzor Chinyere lauded Governor Wike for living up
to his promise of approving the building permit of the church and also
granting it certificate of occupancy .
He said all members of
Omega Power Ministry , irrespective of their political party , love
Governor Wike for his commitment to development and the welfare of the
people.
Highpoint of the 10th Anniversary Thanksgiving Service of
Omega Power Ministry was the handing over of the symbolic Government
House key to Governor Wike by Apostle Chinyere .
