River State Governor Nissan will wike
0:05
has reiterated that the people's
0:07
Democratic party PDP G5 Governors will
0:10
only be disposed to reconciliation based
0:12
on Equity fairness and justice
0:15
the Rivers State Governor made the
0:17
assertion at the inauguration of the
0:18
room you appear come flyover the eighth
0:21
so far constructed and completed by his
0:23
administration the project inauguration
0:25
was performed by comrade Adams oshiom
0:28
Hall the former Governor of Edo State on
0:30
Wednesday
0:31
Governor white pointed to Howe prior to
0:34
the crisis rocking the PDP some members
0:36
of the party were singing praises of him
0:38
and colleagues that make up the G5
0:40
Governors but he noted that the same
0:42
people have turned around to call them
0:44
names because they are clamoring for
0:45
Equity fairness and justice
0:48
I'm sure those of them in my party
0:50
before they cannot say anything without
0:52
mentioning like but now because I said
0:55
let the right thing be done let
0:57
agreement be agreement because I have
0:59
said that I have now become an enemy
1:01
these were people who were praising me
1:03
morning night any day
1:06
but because we said look we had an
1:09
agreement do this do that and some
1:11
people believe that they will not and we
1:13
said it must be done we stand for Equity
1:15
fairness and Justice that is what the G5
1:18
Governors will continue to preach we
1:21
have said we are not against
1:22
reconciliation but reconciliation must
1:25
be based on Equity fairness and justice
1:28
Governor wike said politics is about
1:30
interest in rivers people must be sure
1:32
of what they stand to benefit for any
1:33
support they will have to give ahead of
1:35
the 2023 general elections
1:38
politics now is about interest you must
1:41
tell me what is the interest of Rivers
1:42
State you must tell me what is the
1:44
interest of my community I will not join
1:47
anybody who does not want my state to
1:49
benefit I will not support anybody who
1:51
does not like my state
1:53
Governor white Drew attention to the
1:55
place of integrity and Leadership across
1:57
strata and why leaders must be bonded by
1:59
what they say and do
2:01
when once you have lost Integrity there
2:03
is nothing you can offer again and that
2:05
is the problem we are having in this
2:07
country where politicians will stand up
2:09
and make a statement
2:10
and then people are watching you to
2:13
fulfill that statement promise you have
2:14
made and when you don't Nigerians will
2:16
now say that is how politicians behave I
2:19
don't agree to that
2:21
individuals can behave that way I will
2:23
not behave that way if I say something
2:26
today I will do it if there is any
2:28
reason I won't do it I have to come back
2:30
to you and let you know this is the
2:32
reason why and that is what they call
2:34
Integrity
2:35
he called on leaders across Trader and
2:38
divide to promote Unity among Nigerians
2:40
according to him the expected Unity
2:43
should be devoid of ethnicity religion
2:45
and party considerations but based on
2:47
the fact that one is a Nigerian
2:49
we need a Nigeria that all of us can be
2:52
proud of and so for us all we are
2:54
looking for is how Nigeria will progress
2:57
how people will have food on their table
2:59
it is not a about ethnicity it is not
3:02
about religion it is not about party but
3:05
how Nigeria will progress that is where
3:07
we stand
3:08
Governor white decried situations most
3:11
people are made to experience which
3:13
often make them to question their
3:14
nationality as Nigerians he said it is
3:17
unfair for some Nigerians to Lord it
3:19
over others on an unequal stance a
3:21
feeling that negate unity in progress
3:24
the governor also sees the opportunity
3:26
to offer public apology to comrade
3:28
oshiomhole over some political comments
3:30
made against him and the governorship
3:32
candidate that he supported in the last
3:34
Edo state gubernatorial election
3:36
you know I came to Edo state to make
3:38
sure your candidate didn't win election
3:40
I was virtually in charge every day
3:43
coming out on television to take you on
3:45
and I said you will not win and you
3:46
didn't win
3:48
well that assignment has been done we
3:50
now know who is who I want to tell my
3:52
people I sincerely apologize to you and
3:55
you know each time you we learn
3:58
commenting on the project Governor wike
4:00
noted how the people had cried over the
4:02
inconveniences they had suffered while
4:04
the construction work lasted but with
4:06
the room you appearicom flyover now
4:08
completed and inaugurated Governor wike
4:10
observed that people are happier that
4:12
their sacrifice was worth it
4:14
Governor white constructed Julius Berger
4:16
Nigeria PLC to return to the
4:18
rumuapiricum community and make sure all
4:20
roads are reconstructed in the area
4:23
performing the inauguration former
4:25
governor of Edo State comrade Adams
4:27
oshiomhole noted with pleasure the
4:29
belief by Governor wike that in a
4:31
democracy though political parties are
4:33
needed to win elections promises made to
4:35
the people must be kept and projects
4:37
delivered as proof of governance
4:39
I think Rivers people should be proud
4:41
because our people often say that
4:43
profits are not appreciated at home
4:45
Governor wike has truly transformed this
4:48
city
4:49
so sir the truth is that I have heard
4:52
anyone who is able to say with some
4:53
measure of confidence that Governor wike
4:55
his own not just talk you talk you walk
4:58
the talk
4:59
in politics I can't come to this place
5:02
when we want the votes and begin to
5:03
celebrate you if I celebrate you like
5:06
our president buhari has celebrated you
5:08
now and you're using the certificate to
5:10
make the most potent campaign against my
5:12
own party what can we say
5:14
comrade oshiomhole who was also a former
5:16
National chairman of the all
5:18
progressives Congress APC commended
5:21
Governor white for using his time in
5:22
office as governor of Rivers State to
5:24
make a difference
5:25
facts are very stubborn
5:27
so I agree that even your worst critics
5:30
will admit that Governor wike has made a
5:32
difference
5:33
you made a difference not only in terms
5:35
of projects but even your statement this
5:37
afternoon I join you in saying because I
5:39
had coursed to say that in Benin when I
5:41
was governor of Edo state that how can a
5:43
country be governed by people who cannot
5:45
be trusted
5:46
when politicians make statements make
5:48
promises or even make agreements or even
5:50
enact laws and the laws are not to be
5:52
obeyed by themselves but to be obeyed by
5:55
others and when they default in their
5:56
promise or standing they say that is
5:58
politics for you
6:00
providing the description of the project
6:02
