Wike upgrades appointment of Special Assistants to 50,000
Agency Report
Rivers Governor Nyesom Wike has upgraded the appointment of Special Assistants on Political Units from 28,000 to 50,000.
The move was seen as part of the Governor’s fulfillment of the promise to focus on stomach infrastructure having delivered enough physical projects.
A statement on Thursday by the Governor’s Special Assistant, Media, Kelvin Ebiri, said the appointments took immediate effect.
The Governor on March 1 declared that henceforth his administration would focus on welfare and empowerment schemes popularly called stomach infrastructure.
He said having spent the better part of his administration providing physical infrastructure, he would direct his attention to the politics of stomach infrastructure.
He said: “Now that we have done virtually everything we have promised Rivers people, this is the time now we have to play politics of stomach infrastructure”.
There was jubilation in the state when the Governor announced an upgrade in the number of appointees.
