Commandant Hails Amaechi For Rivers Dev
Rivers State Governor, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, has been commended for addressing sectoral challenges that would have resulted in disasters of unimaginable proportion in the future.
The Deputy Commandant of the Armed Forces Command and Staff College, Jaji, Rear Admiral Dele Ezeoba gave the commendation during a dinner hosted for members of the Senior Course 33 of the Command and Staff College in Port Harcourt.
The Deputy Commandant, who eulogised the state government for making sustainable investment in the education and health sectors, described the governor as a visionary leader who had proffered solution to human capital development and provided free healthcare for all Rivers people.
“Government policies should impact on the majority of the people and from what I have seen since we arrived here, we are confident that you have delivered quality dividends of democracy for your people”, he said.
The leader of the delegation also said “with the education policy, the Governor has addressed very serious national disaster that was waiting to happen”.
Responding, the State Governor, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi noted that there was a deliberate effort by politicians to effect positive changes in the country, explaining that the present crop of state governors were making frantic efforts to bring democratic dividends to their people.
“If you watch your state governors, you will see that there appears to be competition among the governors now, to try to improve the lot of their people,” the governor stressed, saying that what was needed was for experts in various fields to reason with government with a view to restructuring the needed development.
The State Chief Executive, who acknowledged the role of the Military in achieving societal harmony, remarked that it was with the cooperation of the Military that relative peace was achieved in Rivers State.
He explained that his administration had given priority attention to primary and post primary education as well as primary health so as to lay a better foundation for the development of the state, adding that Rivers State was about the only state in the country that could generate 380 mega watts of electricity.
