“We wish to state that your noticeable giant strides in areas of infrastructural development, education, security, health, and rural development as confirmed by the Nigerian Guild of Editors, Chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum, The SUN, Authority and Independent newspapers in their assessments of the performance of all governors in the country, show that Wike is indeed, a performing governor in spite of all odds”, the statement stressed.
The group also emphasised the need for the governor to settle the outstanding arrears of tuition and upkeep allowances for the RSSDA-sponsored students on scholarship in overseas universities in order to cushion the hardship encountered by the affected students.
The parents pledged their unflinching loyalty and support to the Wike-led administration, even as they enjoined all residents of the state to join hands with the government to build a peaceful and prosperous state.
