Wike Says Tinubu To Inaugurate Projects In Rivers May 3

Rivers state governor, Nyesome Wike has disclosed that the president-elect Bola Tinubu will inaugurate projects in the state next month.

Wike spoke on Wednesday while inspecting some completed projects in the state.

He said the president-elect will inaugurate the Rumuola-Rumuokwuta flyover and magistrates court building in Port Harcourt on May 3 and 4.

“To God be the glory. We are expecting the President-elect on the 3rd and 4th of next month to commission the 12th flyover and the Magistrates Court building,” he said.

“You can see the Magistrates Court building and how amazing it is. We commend the contractor too who has done this job, and quite on time. I don’t think you can find this anywhere in this part of the country.”

Wike said Tinubu was informed that he would be invited to inaugurate some “landmark projects” of his administration.

“We had invited presidential candidates of other parties like Labour Party (LP) and the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) — they all came and commissioned projects and we did say to him (President-elect) that we believe that after the election we are going to invite him to commission projects too. And luckily, these two very important projects are ready,” he said.

Wike said his administration started and completed 12 flyovers within the past four years, adding that he has fulfilled the promise he made to the people of the state.
