Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has described the eight years administration of former Governor Chibuike Amaechi as ”clearly wasteful, purposeless and irresponsible.”
Wike made this known while speaking on Sunday at the National Convention of the Ogbakor Ikwerre in the United States, at the Crown Palace Atlanta Hotel in Atlanta, Georgia.
The governor stressed that his administration came into government prepared, hence it confronted the development challenges it inherited.
”For eight years the government was clearly wasteful, purposeless and irresponsible. Under their watch, our economy crumbled and public infrastructure, such as roads, schools, hospitals and sporting facilities were in their worst and horrible state of disrepair.
”The economy deteriorated to a point that the government was no longer meeting its financial obligations to civil servants, contractors and international donor agencies.”
”Two years down the line we are happy to report that our State is substantially back on track and progressing in the right direction; our economy is reasonably strong and growing; while lives and property are relatively more secure and safe.
”Under our watch all the three arms of government are functioning effectively and working harmoniously towards the common good of our people and for the first time in a long while our people are now enjoying the positive effects of having a government that listens, cares, and consults with the people through their representatives before taking any steps,” he said.
