Rivers Governor, Nyesom Wike has alleged that the Federal Government has not done any project in the state since President Muhammadu Buhari took over in 2015.
Wike said this on Friday while flagging off construction work in Isiokpo town.
He therefore challenged anyone to show him a project the Federal Government has executed in the area since the All Progressives Congress (APC) won.
According to him, no member of the APC will “come to Rivers state to campaign”.
“I challenge them to tell our people the project that has been executed by the APC Federal Government in Rivers state,” Wike noted.
“Ordinarily, nobody from the APC will come to Rivers State to campaign.
Wike also revealed that the state will use its own share of the Paris Club refund to execute capital projects.
“The Paris Club Refund they paid to us will be used to execute meaningful projects across the state.
“For us, we have passed the stage of payment of salaries and pensions. We have cleared all those and our focus for now is to roll out projects for the benefit of our people,” he said.
