Vandalism of Rivers State
Government House: Wike says it may
take three months for him to operate
from the facility
Rivers State Governor, Nyesom
Ezenwo Wike has stated that with
the level of the looting of furniture,
facilities and cars in Government
House, Port Harcourt by the
immediate past Governor, Rotimi
Amaechi, it may take three months
before he starts operating from the
Government House.
This is even as the Senate President,
David Mark stated that the PDP will
return to power at the Federal level
in 2019 as Nigerians will yearn for
the party after four years of APC.
Both leaders spoke in Port Harcourt
on Sunday during a post
inauguration thanksgiving service.
Wike said an inspection of the
Government House, Port Harcourt
revealed that all the bullet proof
doors, furniture cars, crested carpets,
curtains and windows were stolen by
the former administration.
He said: “ As I speak with you,
everything has been vandalised. I
will not enter the Government
House in the next two or three
months.
“There is no vehicle in Government
House, not even one. Yet the former
governor talks about corruption”.
He, however, said that the ugly
situation left behind by the former
Governor will not stop his
administration from developing
Rivers State. Wike said he will not
disappoint the PDP and the people
of the state.
In his remark, Senate President
David Mark noted that PDP will only
experience opposition for years as
most of the achievements of the
party would be glaring to Nigerians
within this period.
He said Rivers State is now the
cornerstone of the PDP nationwide,
adding that Governor Wike should
rise to the occasion and deliver
democracy dividends in line with
expectations of the people who
voted him.
The post inauguration thanksgiving
service reception was attended by
Deputy Senate President Ike
Ekweremadu, Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Emeka Ihedioha,
Senator Hope Uzodinma, Senators-
elect from the South-South and
South-East, Acting National
Chairman of PDP, Uche Secondus and
the NWC of the PDP.
