Wike Promises To Improve Rivers Parks And Markets




Rivers State Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, governorship candidate, Chief Nyesom Wike, has said that his administration, if elected, will improve basic amenities in motor parks and markets. He assured that market women and men would benefit from the special business grants that he will institute.
Chief Wike made this known during his campaign visits to Abali Motor Park, Creek Road Market, Femie and Rumuokuta markets in Port Harcourt and markets in Abuluoma, a suburb of the Rivers State capital. He also visited markets in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area.
Wike in company of Senator George Sekibo, Mrs Blessing Nsiegbe, member, the House of Representatives,  PDP women and youth groups, said that the condition of markets in the state capital was deplorable and needed urgent attention.
He said that when he assumes office on May 29, he will take immediate steps to improve on the sanitary condition of the markets and parks, and build sick bays, improve on security and ensure that traders take their place in the scheme of things in the state.
Wike said that Rivers State traders will benefit more from the PDP as they have been factored into the party’s development process as critical members, who contribute their quota to state and national development.
“I am here to interact with traders in this market because I have a comprehensive package to ensure that they get business grants in order for them to grow their businesses. I am here to assure you that my administration will enhance your standard of living,” he said during an interaction with market women at the Creek Road Market in Port Harcourt.
He urged the traders to vote PDP all the way as the All Progressives Congress, APC, has proved to be a party that has no agenda for the people of Rivers State and Nigeria.
He said after eight years, Governor Rotimi Amaechi has enmeshed himself in corruption, using funds meant for the development of Rivers State to fund APC and his principal, General Muhammadu Buhari.
He said: “Your markets are in this deplorable condition because of Amaechi. He has made it a point of duty to divert your monies for APC campaigns and to sponsor Buhari for a campaign that is bound to fail.”

Sen. Magnus Abe's Courageous Fight For Rivers Brick House

Ab e' Today Rivers people especially majority of faithful of the All Progressives Congress APC defied the heavy down pour in Port Harcourt to show solidarity for Sen. Magnus Abe and the direct primaries in the state which has been kicked against by the Rotimi Amaechi faction of the party in the state. This support which was massive and highly successful  buttressed the position of the over 148,000 people that caste  their votes on the direct primaries which held in the state on the 30th of September 2018. Rivers people on that   fateful day showed that they wanted the right man for the job in defiance of the foisting of an unknown candidate chosen from the blues to fly the flag of the party. The solidarity which the people of the state and APC members showed for the Ogoni born Senator has to be respected by the party unlike what is happening today where the party seems to be favouring the emergence of Tonye Cole all in the bid to please the former governor of t...
