Former Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, has claimed that his successor, Nyesom Wike, has failed to provide social amenities for the people of the state.
He stated this on Tuesday during his campaign for the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in the state, Tonye Cole, in Erema, Omoku, Ndoni, Egbema, and Obrikom communities.
Amaechi said Wike refused to build schools, and healthcare facilities, and generate electricity for the people of the state in his eight years in office.
He reminded the people that he provided infrastructural facilities during his tenure as governor, stressing that his administration performed better than Wike’s government.
Amaechi also said Cole was the best among the governorship candidates and should be voted as governor of the State in the March 18 election.
He said: “Compare Tonye and the other man, then compare our government with that of Wike. Did Wike do schools, did he do electricity? Your health care, we did. When you see Tonye Cole who is a businessman, from business into politics, why won’t you invest in him? This is your time, come out and vote. When we win, things will change. The free education will be brought back.”
