Governorship candidate of the Action Democratic Party in Rivers State, Hon. Victor Fingesi says there will be no more poverty in the state in the first two years of his administration.
Fingesi said this during his unveiling as the Governorship candidate of the ADP in Rivers State.
According to him, being rich is not to have a billion in the account but to be very comfortable living without stress and live where children can go to school free.
He stated that no one deserved to be poor in Rivers State with an estimated N57.3billion annually generated into government coffers.
“There will be no more poverty in Rivers in the first two years of our administration. It sounds impossible and difficult for people to believe but Rivers State has all it takes for everybody to be rich.
“Being rich is not to have a billion naira in the account, but to be very comfortable living without stress and live where children can go to school free. The major problem we have is poverty. Poverty is the reason we are having an increased rate of crime and insecurity,” he added.
