Wike Restores Omehia's Entitlements As Former Governor by skultrick(m): 6:22pm On Jun 25, 2015
A press statement from Rivers state
government stated that,

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike
has formally restored all the entitlements and
benefits of Sir Celestine Omehia as a former
Governor of the state. Governor Wike on
Thursday also formally reinstated the official
portrait of Sir Celestine Omehia amongst the
line up of former governors of Rivers State at
the Government House, Port Harcourt
Executive Council Chamber.
Performing the exercise, Governor Wike said
that the decision to restore the entitlements
and privileges of Omehia as former governor
stemmed from the fact that he worked as
governor of the state between May 29, 2007
and October 25, 2007, wherein he took
decisions on behalf of the State and initiated
projects. He said: I hereby put back his
official portrait among those of former
governors. He is now entitled to the benefits
of all former governors.
The governor said that the era of politics of
bitterness in Rivers State was effectively
over, noting that it was not right to
personalise governance as was done by the
immediate past administration. Responding,
former Governor of Rivers State, Sir Celestine
Omehia described Thursday as the most
historic day of his political career. He said
that the restoration of his rights as a former
goveenor indicates that his dark political days
are over.
The event was witnessed by the Secretary to
Rivers State Government, Kenneth Kobani,
Rivers State Housing Commissioner, Barrister
Emma Okah and the State Attorney-General,
Chinwe Aguma.

Necessary fence mending!

Wike is personally hanging the portrait so that all haters can forever remain mute.

What Amaechi could not do despite being related to this man but succeeded in dividing rivers state. Only Amaechi fought Peter Odili, Omehia......

This guy is the most petty politician in Nigeria honestly. His only goal as a governor is to do things to spite Amaechi as though that is what the people of Rivers State voted him into office to do.

Well, what's my business, let them enjoy the sunshine. I don't see how his actions affect me.

All your former military presidents/governors including Buhari were not more than usurpers who turned the guns and ammunitions bought with tax payers money against the people and imposed themselves on us against our wish, yet they keep enjoying the privileges entitled to by former presidents/governors with no eyebrows raised.

Do you need a court of law to tell you military rule is illegal. If you really want to argue what about Ernest Shonekan who headed an interim government that was declared illegal by a court paving way for Abachas coup? Is Shonekan not still being mentioned as former president or HOS, does Shonekan not attend council of state meetings?

Take time ooo

This also means that Andy Uba should receive allowance and benefits for life, and have his picture hung in Anambra State Government house for his less than one month stay as governor. Impeached deputy governors such as Femi Pedro must have their case revisited as he is entitled to Allowance for life.

And someone would be questioning why reccurent expenditure is over 70% of total budgets.
