Chairman of the Rivers State chapter of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Mr. Felix Obuah, has urged ex-governor of the state, Hon Chibuike Amaechi and All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in the April 26, 2015 election, Mr. Dakuku Peterside to make out time for a facility tour of the new Rivers State under Governor Nyesom Wike.
Obuah in a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Jerry Needam, said the facility tour will not only teach Amaechi and Peterside how to make judicious use of public funds for public interest but will also enable them re-master the rehabilitated roads and streets and construction of new ones in the Port Harcourt metropolis and its environs.
Obuah described development as the core reason for aspiring to leadership position and not necessarily hijacking power for sheer bravado that characterized their eight year long administration that left nothing but a legacy of misery and abandoned projects behind.
He regretted that rather than admire and give kudos to Wike, he is being vilified for not toeing the path of self-enrichment at the expense of infrastructural development of the state and the general welfare of Rivers people.
He said, “It’s no longer a matter of unnecessary exaggerations, hoodwinking the people into a world of make-believe that were their stock in trade while their administration lasted. Ours is democracy in action and food for thought for doubting Thomases.
“The magic is nothing but applying accountability, transparency and commitment to duty in the management of state resources. The rehabilitated streets and roads and construction of new ones across the State are only an iceberg vis-a-via the lofty ideals of Governor Wike to transform the state into a haven for investors, and a promised land for all peace loving progressives irrespective of tribe, ethnicity, nationality and, or religion
