Chairman of Rivers All Progressives Congress (APC) Isaac Ogbobula has taken a swipe at Governor Nyesom Wike, stating that since he assumed office, he cannot boast of ten persons he has economically empowered in the state.
Ogbobola who made this known in a statement yesterday in Port Harcourt, accused Wike of concentrating to destroy the APC in the state.
The statement reads:
It is unacceptable that more than six years as Rivers State Governor, His Excellency, Nyesom Wike cannot point to ten (10) young men of Rivers origin who have been economically empowered to compete in the business world.
It is most unfortunate that rather than the Governor priding himself in terms of human capital development, he is instead always boasting of how he will cripple the All Progressives Congress in the State and you can imagine the humonguous funds he pushes in that direction to massage his ego.
We must start to seriously interrrogate the policies, programmes and activities of the State Governor and invariably the application of State resources.
Rivers people must be made to consciously resist a situation where one man runs the show in the State; in charge of supplies, contracts, projects etc while others wallow in penury and poverty.
