Beneficiaries of the developmental drive of Rivers State Governor, Chief Nyesom Wike last Wednesday trooped out in their numbers at different project sites across the state to praise his contributions to the transformation of the state.
From Isiokpo in Ikwerre Local Government Area where the Rivers State governor inspected the Isiokpo internal roads to Birabi Street in the GRA axis of Port Harcourt and Mile One Market in Diobu, the people sang songs of praise in appreciation of the governor’s sterling performance.
At Birabi Street, foreign exchange traders sang songs requesting the Rivers State governor to seek a second term in office.
Market women and traders at the Mile One Market danced around the governor, endorsing him for a second term.
The governor also inspected ongoing construction of restaurants and cinemas at the Port Harcourt Pleasure Park, Produce House and National Industrial Court.
In an interview, the governor expressed satisfaction with the quality of work in Isiokpo, where the administration is delivering 22.6 kilometres of network of roads to kick-start the economy of the town.
He said: “It is our duty to monitor what the contractors are doing. We are committed to ensuring that the contractors maintain the standard demanded by us”.
The governor stated that the foreign exchange traders have been informed that they have to relocate after the dualisation of the Birabi Street (Hotel Presidential Road) is completed.
Wike stated that his administration will improve on the aesthetics of Birabi Street by creating a green area along the route.
He said: “Those who engage in foreign exchange trading along Birabi Street have been informed that they will move”.
