Rivers State Government says it will approach the federal government through the Ministry of Transportation headed by Rotimi Amaechi to facilitate the completion of the remodeling project at the Port Harcourt International Airport, Omagwa.

Governor Nyesom Wike, stated this Sunday, while addressing the third session of the third synod of the Diocese of Ikwerre, held at St. Stephen’s Anglican Church, Omerelu in Ikwerre Local Government Area, with the theme “Looking unto Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our Faith.”

Wike who was represented by his deputy, Dr. (Mrs) Ipalibo Harry Banigo, stated that although the airport project belongs to the Federal Government, the State Government would adopt advocacy means to ensure the smooth completion of the airport project, to ease hardship encountered by Air Travellers and Airport s.

He said the State Road Maintenance Agency would be mobilized to Omerelu Community to embark on internal road rehabilitation and construction to address poor road network in the area.

On security, Wike reiterated his earlier promise to kick start the building of a Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARs) station between Elele and Omerelu community to check the security challenges posed by activities of criminals in the area, particularly as border towns.

The State Chief Executive, congratulated the church for successfully hosting the synod while soliciting for prayerful and encouragement of the clergy as well as the parishioners to the State Government to enable it deliver on its mandate

Earlier in his address, Bishop of Ikwerre Diocese Anglican Communion, Rt. Rev.d Blessing Enyindah, lauded Governor Wike for appointing of the church into his cabinet and for honouring the synod with his presence, noting that, it was the first time in the history of the diocese that a Governor was visiting them.

He called on the governor to expedite action in curbing the rising cases of insecurity in the area, as well as the construction of internal roads in Omeralu Community and requested for grants to assist in rehabilitating of Mission Schools in the Community.

In his sermon, guest minister, Rev. Michael Fape said the theme of the synod is apt, as Christians should have hope in running the race of the kingdom of God and charged them to be steadfast.

Approach? That's the work of Amaechi as a Minister.. Should they beg him to do his job?

Everything shouldn't be about supremacy battle, PH airport is a very important hub for the nation & Amaechi doesn't need "begging" before doing his job...

However, Amaechi is the Minister of Aviation Federal Republic Of Nigeria not Federal Republic Of Rivers.. & isn't answerable to wike, it would serve Wike (& Rivers folks) well to befriend Amaechi than antagonize him....

Policy trumps politics anyday, wise people don't leave important issues to fight over inconsequentials..

Why didn't Wike approach Stella Oduah when his party was in power?

Why didn't Wike approach Stella Oduah when his party was in power?

Because Wike wasn't the Governor then, but Ameachi.
Ameachi was the one that suppose to make the approach but he refused cos of pride.

Actually he did but Stella oduah wanted him to succk shepopotamus pusssy which Amaechi never did. That was the reason why Jonah-daft govt left the airport the way it is. Jonah-daft was a curse to rivers state.

Amaechi already has it planned in the 2016 budget...
it seems Wike wants to claim glory for it

oh really?

So Wike as a Minister representing Rivers in Jonathan's govt could not talk to Stella to do something about the airport in his state?

Wike is accommodating.Amaechi is d troublesome one here

Issorait

Hahaha, just like Joseph's brother that lather bowed to him after selling him to Egypt

figment232:
Wike is accommodating.Amaechi is d troublesome one here

pray how do you know this to be true?

If not in the interest of River state, Wike would have continued the feud till eternity

Amaechi has no love for river state, He will be pleased to see it boiling under wike

Why is he wasting his time - Amaechi hates Rivers people.

Meaning he will go cap in hand...?

Oche211:

don't be surprise to know that the two meet and share a couple of drinks together and laugh at the foolish masses killing themselves for them. They are all Paddy Paddy.

Sue him to court if need be!

Bunch of theives!

Hmmm but same Wike said he won't touch d light rail project Amaechi started. Well, i know without asking, Amaechi wud do it, he spent so much on infrasture during his time as d governor cos Odili only looted witout doing nothing in d state.
I know some wailer will start insulting Amaechi but I still believe if GEJ had listen to Amaechi, GEJ wud have won but he chose to follow those dat decieved him.

Very good!

without proof don't utter thrash.

Wike should go to hell..


He was the one encouraging Jonathan then not to give Port Harcourt Airport concession to Amaechi when Amaechi wanted to take it over and build it..

Meanwhile concession was granted to Akpabio for Akwa Ibom Airport.



Amaechi should not even pick his calls let alone discuss anything with the Babylonian..


4 Years, after 4 years, Rivers people eye will open and see Wike for who he really is.

Die for politicians at your own will especially if to die dey hungry you.

Tom and jerry

God don catch am

Anything just to make news.


What's so special abt this?
