Rivers Angels GM Hails Wike Over New Bus
The General Manager of Rivers Angels Football Club of Port Harcourt, Matilda Otuene, has commended the Executive Governor of Rivers State, Chief Nyesom Wike, after receiving a brand new Luxury Bus purchased for her side.
Otuene made the commendation yesterday, during an interview with Tidesports in Port Harcourt.
It would be recalled that Governor Wike had on February 11 presented a Luxury bus to Rivers United and ordered that the 32-seater coaster bus which was meant to be given to Rivers Angels be replaced with a Luxury one as well.
According to her, Governor Wike kept to his promise as the Jewel of Rivers officially received their brand new Luxury bus on Saturday, March 6, 2021.
Ms Otuene commended the Governor for his commitment towards ensuring Rivers Angels get good treatment as they continue with their quest to qualify for the first edition of the Confederation of Africa Football (CAF) Women’s Champions League this year.
“The Governor has once again proven to be a father that loves his children equally.”
“I call him my talk and do Governor and I’m so happy for this blessing from His Excellency.
“This goes to show that His Excellency is a gender- friendly Governor and equally someone that loves a level playing ground for his children.
“The girls are so excited and can’t wait to say thank you to the Governor by securing another away win this week,” she added.
Rivers Angels will be up against Dream Stars Ladies in one of the week 9 fixtures of the Nigeria Women Football League (NWFL) scheduled to hold tomorrow in Lagos State.
