Rivers state Governor, Chief Ezebunwo Nyesom Wike, has
declared that enemies of the state will be disappointed after the legislative
rerun elections on December 10, 2016, despite their negative plots against the
state.
Wike, who made the declaration yesterday while speaking at
the 2016 Super Sunday Service of the
Christ Apostolic Church, Emohua in Emohua
local government area of the state, noted that the enemies
the state are working hard to cause violence in areas where the rerun elections
will hold.
He said, “I have to come to formally report to God that the
enemies of the state are back. The way they were humiliated in 2015 and March
19,
2016 is the way they would be humiliated on December 10,
2016. Pray for peace in the forthcoming rerun elections in the state.”
The governor, who stated that the resources of the state
will always be used for the good of Rivers people, said, “Never again will
Rivers resources be used to sponsor national politics. We will not take our
money to play national politics.
“Rivers is a christian state and we owe nobody no apology
for that. I want to reiterate our commitment to setting up a special
intervention fund for churches to take care of their members who are in need.
“At present, church leaders are fine tuning the details for
this special fund, which we believe will further unite the church.” Wike said
the Ecumenical Centre will be ready for the state’s 50th Anniversary in 2017,
while the Government House Chapel will be dedicated by December, 2016.
In his address, Chairman of the Port Harcourt Conference of
the Christ Apostolic Church, Pastor Godwin Osuigbo, urged the governor to
sustain his development programmes.
