The National President of Community Reformed Youths Initiatives ( CRYI), Engr Danago Taribo Wenik-Briggs, has promised Rivers people of his plans to consolidate on Governor Nyesom Wike’s programmes and projects, if elected as the State Governor come 2023.
Wenike-Briggs made the promise when he received in audience the executive of Mass Mobilisation for True Democracy ( MMTD), who honoured him with an award of recognition in his office in Port Harcourt recently.
He called on Rivers people not to be jittery over the issue of who will step into Wike’s big shoes, and said that the Messiah was already on ground.
The CRYI boss further told his audience that more industries will be established to absolve more youths into gainful employment which will not only address the challenge of unemployment but that of crime blamed on idleness.
He also told the group to live up to their name and not play any hide and seek game targeted at immediate profits without considering the future.
Meanwhile, the founder and President of the group, Comrade Eferebo Daniel Briggs, has said that their choice of the CRYI boss for the number one political office of the state was born out of their general findings and profiling that placed him top among others.
”We endorsed the gubernatorial ambition of the National President of CRY Initiative, Dcn. Danagogo Taribo Wenike Opurum Briggs in the 2023 general elections, because of his philanthropic and God- fearing nature”, he said.
To support the popular view of the people on the issue of riverine governorship candidate, he pointed out that the Kalabari axis should carry the day.
He also pointed out that Wenike-Briggs has through the CRYI platform, reoriented many young people on why they must not be willing tools in the hands of greedy politicians who only use and dump them after the elections.
“This group has been working judiciously to select the best candidate for the job. Though, we have many candidates from the riverine and other parts of the state, we must choose a good God fearing candidate to pilot the affairs of the state with fear and integrity for the state”, he said.
Another reason he advanced for the visit was to officially endorse their host for the Bricks House race for next year and to assure him of their support, before, during and after the elections.
“We are here to endorse Danagogo Wenike-Briggs and work closely with him. We have our presence cut across the 23 LGAs of Rivers State and five other states of the federation.
In order to ensure this aim is achieved, we call on all Rivers indigenes and non-indigenes to join us in making it come true for the benefit of the state”, he said.
He has also appealed to all eligible voters to hurry and get the voters card, adding that the 2023 general elections need tenacity and audacity to make it work.
Describing Wenike-Briggs as the man with the magic fingers to fix the state, he called on all to queue behind him, if they want a consolidation of what Governor Nysom Wike is doing in the state.
