Tinubu In Rivers, Lauds Wike For Championing Fairness, Justice, Unity

 

The President -elect Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Wednesday stormed Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital, on a two – day visit, and commended his host, Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, for playing vital roles that ensured power shifted to the South geopolitical zone in the last presidential election.

Tinubu, who for the first time spoke of  the contributions of Wike to his victory at the election, said the Governor and leader of the G-5 through his actions and utterances promoted fairness, justice and unity by insisting that despite all odds that the Presidency must return to the South.

 

The incoming President spoke in Obio-Akpor, Rivers State where he inaugurated the 12th flyover project, the Rumuola-Rumuokwuta Flyover.

 

The entire Port Harcourt stood still as thousands of residents trooped out to catch a glimpse of Tinubu, whose plane touched the Port Harcourt International Airport, Omagwa around 10:03 am.

 

As Tinubu stepped out of the jet that conveyed him to Rivers waving his left and right hands intermittently, the crowd that thronged the airport responded with shouts of “Jagaban”, “the President”.

Tinubu’s posters, banners and flyers were used to decorate the road leading to the city from the airport and residents were seen standing along the highway to wave at the President-elect.

 

The venue of the event was crowded by enthusiastic Garden City residents who came principally to have glimpse of Tinubu, making it a herculean task for security agents to control the surging crowd.

As the President-elect got to the venue of the event in the company of his host and many dignitaries, the crowd erupted in jubilation.

 

The President-elect  promised to work evenly for the country without marginalising any part in areas of development.

Asiwaju Tinubu is due to be inaugurated as president on May 29.

“I will not marginalise any region, but will leave legacy projects across the length and breadth of Nigeria,” he said at the opening of Rumuokwuta/Rumuola Flyover Bridge.

Tinubu praised Governor Wike for the development strides in Rivers State, particularly for the 12 flyovers constructed across the capital city, saying posterity would kindly remember him.

He said with his accomplishments in the state, Nigeria would need the outgoing Rivers governor in higher capacities.

On the political front, Tinubu thanked Wike and the people of Rivers State for their support for him.

He said he was in the state in line with the promise he made during the campaigns in Rivers, saying “if you make a promise, you keep it.

“I will never forget the pivotal role the great and wonderful people of this state played in my victorious campaign to become the next president of this country. You have my eternal gratitude.

“In His Excellency, Governor Wike, I see a man of principle. He took a principled stand that the presidency should be returned to the South; and he had the courage to stand by his convictions, not minding whose ox was gored.

“He is, indeed, a man of great integrity. He did not choose to serve his own interests, rather, the interests of the nation and the people of Rivers State. I thank him for his selfless leadership,” he added.

In his speech, Wike said the invitation for Tinubu to commission projects in the state was a fulfilment of promise made during the President-elect’s campaign visit to Rivers.

He expressed appreciation to Tinubu for agreeing to visit Rivers State and perform the commissioning.

Wike, who threw jibes at the leadership of his party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), applauded the election of Tinubu which, he said, had shamed naysayers.

The event was attended by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila and Governors Abubakar Badaru (Jigawa), David Umahi (Ebonyi), Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq (Kwara), Seyi Makinde (Oyo) and Hope Uzodinma (Imo).

Others were former governors Dr Peter Odili (Rivers), Chief Bisi Akande (Osun), Chief James Ibori (Delta), Dr Kayode Fayemi (Ekiti), Chief Timipre Sylva (Bayelsa) and Chief Ayo Fayose (Ekiti).

Others in attendance include governor-elect of Rivers State, Mr Sim Fubara, Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Mr Sunday Dare, Mr Dele Alake and Alhaji Kashim Ibrahim Imam, among others, according to Abdulaziz Abdulaziz of the Office of the President-elect.
