The Government of Rivers State has reacted to the President Muhammadu Buhari’s planned visit. The Rivers Government said the visit would afford the people of the state a rare opportunity to inform Buhari of the total neglect of the state by the All Progressives Congress, APC-led Federal Government since it came into power.
A statement by the Commissioner for Information and Communications, Emma Okah, said, “The impending visit is a welcome development. He’s president for all Nigerians, and not the president of a particular part of the country or political party.
