Briggs Presents Equipment To Fishing Trawler Crew
Special Adviser to the Governor of Rivers State on Aquaculture and Deep Sea Fishing, Hon. Kurotamunoye Briggs say, Rt Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, will formally flag-off the maiden voyage of the Rivers State Government-owned fishing trawler, soon.
Speaking while presenting safety gadgets and equipment to the crew members who are indigenes of Rivers State, on Monday. Hon. Briggs thanked Governor Rotimi Amaechi for releasing funds for the procurement of the gadgets and equipment, which he said underscores the importance the State Government attaches to life and property, as well as providing conducive and safe work environment for the people of the state.
He enjoined the youths who are currently under going familiarisation and orientation training on board the vessels to be obedient, industrious and appreciative of government efforts as such job opportunities are not easy to come by.
In his response, the Project Manager of Vijons Investment Nigeria Limited, Managers of the trawlers, showered encomiums on governor Amaechi, for investing in this laudable project, which he says will engender commercial activity (buying and selling of fish) in the state.
He confirmed that mobilisation for the maiden voyage of the vessels was about 90 per cent completed.
Some of the 25 trainees who were visibly excited with the facilities on board the trawlers including Tonye Iyalla, (Ogu/Bolo), Wilberforce Ibanibo (Asari-Toru) and Nwuzi Chikezie (Etche) thanked Governor Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi for providing them with a life line, and promised not to let the state government down.
