Gov Wike is a ‘Promise Keeper,’ Obuah tells Rivers people
*Rivers State PDP chairman, Mr Felix Obuah
Obuah who spoke at a reception for the All Progressives
Congress, APC, members who decamped to the PDP in Emohua on Sunday, told the
mammoth crowd that the good job which
the governor is doing all over the state is a valid testimony that Wike is
indeed a ‘promise keeper.’
He recalled that Governor Wike had during his campaigns
ahead of the 2015 governorship election assured that his administration will
bring development to all the nooks and crannies of the state, adding that the governor
has not only kept those promises but has also performed beyond expectations,
evidenced by the numerous laurels to his credit from national and international
bodies.
The state PDP Chairman, who was visibly overwhelmed at the
rally, where over 2000 members of both APC and Labour Party (LP) defected to
the PDP, said the event was a pointer that Wike is truly working.
Obuah at the rally regretted the eight years of bitter pills
which former Governor Chibuike Amaechi foisted on Rivers people in the name of
governance, joyfully stressing that less than three years in office, Governor
Wike has demonstrated that good governance is possible through relentless
effort at executing needed projects for the people.
“Governor Wike has given to every Riversman and woman, a
sense of pride. Our State has been
rebranded and we can now proudly showcase our identity as Rivers people, to the
admiration of others,” Obuah said at the rally.
Obuah said it was in the light of these that the people of
the State are enjoined not to waiver in their support for the governor but to
take advantage of the ongoing Voters Registration exercise and obtain their
Permanent Voters Card as according to him, the PVC remains the only instrument
needed to re-enact what they did in 2015 and return Governor Wike to power
again come 2019.
His words: “I appreciate and congratulate you all for taking
a bold step to make the right decision.
It is a wise decision you have made for yourselves and posterity as
those parties you left only exist on the pages of newspapers.
“APC has nothing to offer Rivers people. Our common resources for eight years under
Amaechi were plundered and even today that APC is in control at the national
level, they have abandoned Rivers people.
Our airport and seaport have been abandoned and the people from the
State who have been given federal appointments have also abandoned the state
and pursuing their selfish interests.”
Obuah told the people of Emohua Local Government Area of the
state to remain focused and not subscribe to any form of blackmail from the APC
and their masters, assuring that so much lies in the kitties of Governor Wike
to bring more developmental projects in the area but added that to ;whom much
is given, much is also expected.’
