Rivers  State  Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike  has  advised his predecessor, Rotimi Amaechi,  to accept the reality that his political  party lost the rerun  elections and allow the state government  focus on its rebuilding plans.

Wike  said responsibility  of  reviving the state, after the immediate  past administration failed to use N3 trillion that accrued to the state under its watch is enormous.

Wike said this when he declared open a retreat on strengthening capacity, efficiency and service  delivery for sustainable development for top government officials at Onne Multi-Purpose Centre yesterday.   He said the administration  has deployed  resources  and  expertise to correct the failures  of  the  Amaechi  administration.

“I call on the former governor and leader of the APC in the state to accept the reality that the rerun elections have woefully been lost by his party and that Rivers people have, again, overwhelmingly re-affirmed their confidence, trust and preference for the PDP.

“Therefore, spare us the agony of unnecessary hostility and allow Rivers to move forward in peace and security. We expect you to use your high office and connections to attract meaningful development projects to the state as I did during my time; not senseless and unpatriotic distractions. Enough is enough. The governor  noted that  all key projects initiated by the Amaechi  administration  were either  abandoned  or not executed  at all.
