Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has declared that the All
Progressives Congress ( APC) has been completely dislodged in the
state.

execution of key projects 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 are
only involved in anti-people programmes.

protect the people of the state , pointing out that he will stand
for the people at all times.
He said: “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. ”
Speaking further, Governor Wike 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 road, Governor Wike said that the
Ozuoba-Rumuoparaeli-Choba road traverses three communities and two
wards.
He said that he has fulfilled the promises made to the people of
the area, adding that more projects will be executed in the area.
Commissioner of Works, Mr Iheanyichukwu Bathuel noted that the
completion of the road has improved the value of property in the
three communities that the road serve.

gratitude of the people to Governor Wike for fulfilling his
