The President, Port Harcourt Chamber of Commerce, Mines, Industry, and Agriculture (PHCCIMA), Eze Mike Elechi, has said investment opportunities should be seen as part of the Rivers State Government’s aims of establishing the three new campuses of the state-owned university built in three different local government areas of the State.
Elechi said this when he spoke with newsmen at the Commissioning of the Emohua Campus of Rivers State University (RSU) by Governor Nyesom Wike in Emohua Local Government Area.
He noted that the campus will attract investors to the area for possible transformation and business development.
Elechi, who doubles as the Chief Executive Officer/Managing Director, Vintage Farms and Products ,Elele, also hinted that the lands in the areas will begin to appreciate in value.
The national business award winner stated that the opportunity would serve beyond academic activities, going by the global trend of teaching and learning.
“We are in 21st century. All we need now is to move beyond theory and classroom activities. Countries like China are excelling today, because they have moved beyond theory”, he said.
He also called on the rural dwellers to see the opportunity as as a dream come true and ensure that they make the best out of it.
The retired Permanent Secretary further called on investors all over the country to consider the need to invest in the area as urgent.
Elechi foresees business activities in the area tripling in no distance, emphasising on the need to apply what he called the ‘early bird’ business mentality.
He expressed appreciation to Governor Wike for his relentless efforts in opening the State for business opportunities.
