Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, has stated that the enemies of the state would be disappointed after the rerun elections on December 10, 2016, despite their negative plots against the state.
Speaking during the 2016 Super Sunday Service of the Christ Apostolic Church at Emohua, Wike noted that the enemies of Rivers State are working hard to stoke violence in areas where the rerun elections will hold .
He said: “I have to come to formally report to God that the enemies of the state are back. The way they were humiliated in 2015 and March 19, 2016 is the way they would be humiliated on December 10, 2016. “Pray for peace in the forthcoming rerun elections in the state”
The governor said that the resources of Rivers State will always be used for the good of Rivers people.
“Never again will Rivers resources be used to sponsor national politics. We will not take our money to play national politics”, he said.
Wike added: “Rivers is a Christian State and we owe nobody an apology for that. I want to reiterate our commitment to setting up a special intervention fund for churches to take care of their members, who are in need.
“At present, church leaders are fine tuning the details for this special fund, which we believe will further unite the church.”
The governor said that State Ecumenical Centre would be ready for the state’s 50th Anniversary by next year, while the Government House Chapel would be dedicated by December, 2016.
In his address, chairman, Port Harcourt Conference of the Christ Apostolic Church, Pastor G.C. Onuigbo, urged the governor to sustain his development programmes.
He also called on him to carry all the people of the state along, irrespective of their political affiliations.
Guest Preacher, Pastor Ayo Ezekiel described Wike as a man of destiny, who had been positioned by God to rebuild Rivers.
