APC is dislodged in Rivers State, says Governor Wike
The Rivers State governor, Barrister Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, has declared that what he described as the vestiges of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the state has been completely dislodged following the mass execution of key projects his administration has carried out across the state.
Commissioning the Ozuoba-Rumuoparaeli-Choba road in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area on Tuesday, Governor Wike said that the APC no longer has a voice in the state because leaders of the party were only involved in anti-people programmes.

The governor lauded the Akpor people for giving him the traditional mandate to protect the people of the state, pointing out that he would stand for the people at all times and bring developmental in the state.
According to the governor, “There is no more APC in Rivers State, we have used projects to dislodge the APC in the state. If they don’t steer clear of Rivers State, we shall cut them off from the state, now that our people have given us the mandate to clear all the unwanted items.”
Continuing, the governor said: “All those that know, must not come close because my people have given me the instrument to go to war against enemies of Rivers State.”
Commenting on the commissioned road, Governor Wike said that the Ozuoba-Rumuoparaeli-Choba road traversed three communities and two wards and that he has fulfilled the campaign promises made to the people of the area, adding that more projects would be executed in the area.
The state Commissioner of Works, Mr. Iheanyichukwu Bathuel, in his speech at the commission noted that the completion of the road has improved the value of property in the three communities that the road served.
Speaking also was the spokesman of the Rumuokparali community, Sir Chris Abel, who expressed the gratitude of the people to Governor Wike for fulfilling his campaign promise to them.
