Rivers State Deputy Governor, Dr (Mrs) Ipalibo Harry Banigo has commended the Rivers State House of Assembly for supporting Governor Nyesom  Wike to ensure that Rivers  resources were used to develop Rivers State.
Dr Banigo stated this while playing host to members of the Rivers State House of Assembly House Committee on the Office of the Deputy Governor at the Government House in Port Harcourt, last Friday.
