Rivers Governor Nyesom Wike
pledged on Thursday that he would
deliver his electoral promises such
that the people would never regret
electing him.

Wike made the pledge in Port
Harcourt while inaugurating the
Rumukurusi-Eneka-Igwuruta road
being part of the activities lined up
to mark his one year in office.
The governor expressed his
determination to make remarkable
impact on the lives of the populace
during his tenure.

“Rivers people will not have any
cause to regret giving me their
mandate. I am already working
very hard to fulfill all my campaign
promises. Our target is to ensure
the completion of every project
being embarked upon and those
left behind by the immediate past
government,” he said.

According to Wike, the confidence
the people have in him will be
justified at the end of the day.

“I will not disappoint Rivers
people, you will not regret giving us
your mandate and our concern is to
implement projects that will have
positive impact. We urge Rivers
people to give us support and make
meaningful inputs that will help us
serve them better,” he said.

Speaking to the News Agency of
Nigeria (NAN) during the event, the
state’s Commissioner for
Works, Bathuel Iheanyichukwu, said the roads would boost economic
activities.

He told the populace to support
contractors handling projects in
their communities and to also
provide security for equipment and
personnel.
