Wike to implement report on probe of Amaechi
By Kelvin Ebiri on September 15, 2015 6:21 am
RIVERS State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has vowed to implement the recommendations of the judicial commission of inquiry probing the sale of its valued assets by the immediate past administration of Governor Chibuike Amaechi.
The Justice George Omereji seven- man commission of inquiry which concluded its proceeding over the weekend, has warned Amaechi and some members of his administration who shunned the panel to be prepared to bear the consequences of their action.
Special adviser on media and publicity to the governor, Opunabo Inko-Tariah, told The Guardian that the state government is eagerly awaiting the recommendations of the Justice Omereji Commission, and will ensure its full implementation without fear or favour.
Inko-Tariah explained that the Commission was not set up to witch-hunt Amaechi contrary to his claim. Rather, he said the Commission which was legally constituted, was set up by the governor to determine the probity of certain financial transactions like the payment of $39.2 million for the Justice Adolphus
Karibi Whyte special hospital to a contractor that never executed the project as well as the sale of the state owned four gas turbine power stations under the administration of his predecessor.
“ The commission was set up to ascertain certain financial transactions under Amaechi. Rivers State funds were involved in these transactions and we assume some of the funds might have been embezzled and that is the reason for the commission.”

Someone posted the other day that in the northern states where apc governors took over from pdp, you'd hardly hear of any media war between the present & ex, unlike we southerners!!!

Do not have a problem with a probe into corrupt practices, its a welcome & noble plan but its aim should be for probity & not to discredit or embarass!!!

Wike, should spend his time building goodwill for the inevitable election re-run...

I don't understand this wike of a man with his noise making

Maybe he thinks this is the way to build his 'goodwill' with Rivers people.

As for the northern comment.... I don't think its a sectoral issue at all. Its about those involved.
