Wike disagrees with Ambode, says ‘Rivers safest state in Nigeria’
— 12th June 2017
Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has disagreed with his Lagos State counterpart, Akinwunmi Ambode over which state is safest in Nigeria.

According to Governor WIke, Rivers remains the safest state in the country to transact business and live in.

He said this on Sunday, while appraising the state government’s investment on security.

The governor stated this in Port Harcourt at a dinner to mark the 20th Anniversary of Air France’s first flight to Port Harcourt International Airport.

He said that the state government would do all in its power to build on the confidence of investors to conduct business in the State.

Wike said that wooing investors remained critical to the development of the state, because it would generate employment.

“It is a priority for us to attract investors for our people to be employed; that is why we make security a priority,” he added.

The governor claimed that Rivers was safer than Lagos, Kogi, Kaduna, Benue and Kano states “where kidnappers and murderers terrorized residents as reported daily”.

“Investors are coming to Rivers regularly and they are talking about insecurity. Look at what is happening in Lagos, Kogi, Kaduna and Kano and you will realize that this state is the safest,” he said.

In his remarks, French Consul, Mr Laurent Poloceaux, stressed that French investments were doing well in Rivers, with schools, businesses and Air France

He is high on drugs ... Or lizard dung

Its like comparing Mount Everest with olumo Rock

Everybody wants to talk.....very soon the idiot will say Rivers state has more population than kano state

Wike needs to sit down and get some sense.
Rivers is by far an unsafe state, with high proliferation of crime, cultism, militancy.
Wike should focus on governance and stop playing games. HIGH EMPLOYMENT RATE =LOW CRIME RATE.
