Rivers PDP thumbs up Wike

The Rivers State Chairman of the PDP, Bro. Felix Obuah, has commended the decision of Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike to repair the East-West Road, stretching from Eleme Junction to the Port Harcourt Refinery and the Oyigbo axis of the Port HarcourtAba Express Road in the state.

Some sections of the two major roads had collapsed, forcing motorists to spend hours on the road.

Obuah, in a statement issued yesterday in Port Harcourt by his media aide, Jerry Needam, commended Governor Wike for nipping in the bud the planned strike by the National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas (NUPENG), saying such action was a demonstration of his sensitivity to the plight of the people of the state, the Niger Delta and indeed all Nigerians.

Obuah also lamented the “apparent indifference” by the APC led-Federal Government to repair federal roads in Rivers State, describing the two federal roads as key to mainstream economic activities in the South South region and as main access to the economic hub of the country.
