Gov Wike
The award of Honour bestowed
on Governor Nyesom Wike for his roles in the promotion of women and children’s
welfare by the International Federation of Women Lawyers (FIDA) is a
reaffirmation that the wisest minds have something yet to learn.
The chairman of the Rivers
State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Bro Felix Obuah said this
while acknowledging the Governor Wike’s recognition, describing the award as
well deserved.
The State PDP boss said if a
women group as learned and critical as FIDA can be so impressed with what they
have seen of the State under Gov Wike in so short a time, has proved that all
the hulla-ba-loo by the opposition in the State was born out of ill-feelings
and petty-jealousy.
Congratulating Gov Wike on
the Honour, Bro Obuah enjoined His Excellency to forge ahead with his lofty
programmes and policies not only for the welfare of women and children but for
the entire sectors of the State economy.
Though the women lawyers’
recognition of Gov Wike’s landmark achievements will add impetus to the
governor’s efforts, he (Gov Wike) though very appreciative is hardly carried
away by such eulogies, Bro Obuah noted, stressing that to promote the social
welfare of the entire Rivers people is upper-most in the Gov’s mind and it
remains sacrosanct.
The State PDP chairman
called for support and prayers for the State governor and his lieutenants to be
able to execute government programmes aimed at moving the State forward for the
benefit of all Rivers people and those resident in the State.
He described Governor Wike
as one of his kind in the leadership history of Rivers State and thanked the
International Federal of Women Lawyers for their foresight and boldness to make
public their impression without fear or favour.
