Rivers: Ojukaye blasts govt Wike... Challenging him to show any revenue generating project he has implemented

The state Chairman of APC in Rivers State, Hon. Ojukaye Flag Amachree has asked governor Wike to show one major revenue and employment generating project he has done for the past three years as Governor of Rivers State despite the Billions of Naira received from federal government and internally generated revenue.

The APC chairman in Rivers state made this shocking demands at the Margaret Ekpo international airport Calabar during a visit to Cross Rivers rice factory project.

Ojukaye said that, it is very unfortunate that in Rivers State the only major project in is the embezzlement of funds meant for development, and abuse of federal institutions.

According to him "I m challenging Gov Wike to mention one project that will generate revenue and employment done by his administration for the past three years as Governor of Rivers State. I m aware that President Buhari have not visited Rivers State because of the level of projects done by Gov Wike which is of local government standard".

"As I speak to you, funds meant for development are been embezzled on a daily basis in Rivers State. Nothing is being done to create employment and generate revenue for the State. When will Rivers people enjoy the dividends of democracy like they did during the time of Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi?"

He further added that "the seeding and seedlings factory5 which is a major source of revenue and employment generation is second to none constructed in recent times in our area. This has really shown that any governor who has his people at heart, can develop the state and create other sources of revenue outside federal allocations."

He however noted that rivers people will have no choice than to vote Wike out in the next election.##
