Chei!..why is this man handed power on a platter so bereft of common sense who is he trying to impress...the impoverished of Kogi or the herdsman in Abuja he runs to every now and then.

Rivers State Government and Julius Berger Nigeria Plc on Friday signed an agreement for the construction of three flyover bridges to develop the landscape of Port Harcourt and resolve traffic congestion in the city.

The Attorney-General of Rivers State, Dr Zaccheus Adango led officials of the Rivers State Government during the signing process, while the Managing Director of Julius Berger Nigeria Plc, Dr Lars Richter led the Julius Berger team.

The length of the Flyover Bridges include: Artillery 1 and 2: 517.5 metres, Rumuokoro 360 metres and Garrison 360 metres.

Governor Wike said there will be no excuse for variation or extension of the time of project completion.

"There should be no excuse. This contract should be completed within schedule. When the Government pays Julius Berger the 70percent upfront, there will be no variation.

"Everything has been done. What is left is compensation. The money for compensation has been set aside", he said.

The Governor charged the management of Julius Berger Nigeria Plc to ensure that Rivers people are given priority in the employment of construction workers. He said that Rivers people will always benefit from Rivers resources.

Aside the construction of the flyover bridges, Governor Wike said that his Administration has awarded contracts for the reconstruction and expansion of key roads in Port Harcourt and Obio/Akpor Local Government Areas.

He said: "Most of the roads have been awarded for construction. We have the New GRA, the Old GRA, Ikwerre Road and other key roads. They will be handled by major contractors.

"Our second term will be like the first term. I appreciate the opportunity that Rivers people gave to me and I will repay them with quality service and projects delivery ".

He called on host communities of the flyover bridges to cooperate with the contractor to ensure speedy delivery of the contract.

"Our people should make sacrifices for us to achieve success. We want to change the landscape of Port Harcourt. The flag off will take place next week Tuesday ", he said.

Governor Wike said that he will continue to place the interest of Rivers State above other considerations

He said: "The only political party that I belong to is Rivers State. Anything that is against the interest of Rivers State, count me out.

"For this project, I am directly responsible for community relations. I will Liaise with the communities to ensure that nobody stops the development process ".

He stated that the Rivers State Government chose Julius Berger Nigeria Plc to execute the project because of the administration's commitment to quality.

Managing Director of Julius Berger Nigeria Plc, Dr Lars Richter assured that the company will deliver the three flyover bridges within the approved 16months period.

He said: "Julius Berger will deliver the projects in the record time of 16months. Governor Wike, I assure you that Julius Berger will deliver".

During his inauguration for a second term, Governor Wike promised Rivers people that he will construct three flyover bridges in Port Harcourt.

BH was on fire yesterday.....about 45 of them was later captured yesternight, we gave them knife to start slaughtering themself.

Bros you be soldier?

And the useless state assembly lawmakers were busy the other day deliberating on how to make a juju ceremony public holiday why bragging about their propensity to showcase their black power waist bands.

Statement of fact...mostly politician from a particular area.

It suddenly makes sense why a state as diverse and packed with very cerebral people will just sit back and allow a gworo teethed drug baron control their political destiny without any resistance like they are all subjected to some kind of mass hypnosis and delirium

See as the bobo wifey bend head to elicit maximum pathos.

Anybody wey wan die here is the best place to start.

Political jobbers they had to wait till almost the end of Dickson's tenure to resign.

Anyways their resignation will create room for others to be promoted or gain employment

Prof Akintola's MURIC dhan see food...he will pounce on this pastor like a bloodhound after a wild boar

Innoson have been on the news for a while now....its like their media influencers are on hyper mode.

Innoson is a blessing to Nigeria.

Wonderful.

I have consistently told people that the best language to worship God ,cool and calm is Igbo.

But others who repented by force (Ndi cheghariri n'ike) can also worship God with Yoruba songs. The pattern of their songs always starts by force. So I think the devil also needs to be subdued by force to free all those who accepted Christ by force.

My broda you no lie.....if you worship with the catholic church and listen to the choir sing those hymns in igbo language it is truly soul lifting

See as Ike's side-view looks like Mayorkun's.

Ike should try as much as possible and knot this girl heart to his on their Dubai Trip.

Perhaps he should also get the avenue of putting that his gbola in Mercy coochies!

Between mercy looks sex starved.

How diju come about the bolded

Didn't know blindness could be hereditary ooh!

But cobham Asuquo why is your gene so strong on the facials why did it not just allow your wife's gene on that department.

Anyway the young man's disability is made lighter by the shear size of his father's pocket, ironically even those with complete sensory organs like Evans, Mc Oluomo, Naira Marley and Buhari have done more damage and constituted untold nuisance to the society

Hmm!...amidst looming workers strike action

Wow! Fulani doing business with ipob interesting.

Ahmadu iliyasu bought arms from Chidi Okebunor, who says there's no strength in diversity

So power plant initiated is the yardstick e kwa? Please where are those power plants initiated and completed by other presidents?

If you check your records without bias, you will agree to the fact that buhari has caused more tangible development in this country than many others who have ruled this country. In case you don't know, buhari built all the four refineries that served Nigeria for decades, but other leaders could not maintain them. Today, look at how much being spent to import petroleum products because the refineries have been killed by those benefiting from subsidy scam.

I don't know when you graduated from school, but if it was up to 10 years ago, then I will tell you to think of PTF projects like lecture halls in different high institutions, luxurious buses, medical centers, hostels, PTF drugs, federal roads etc. All these he did as PTF chairman. Please if other leaders meant well, why did they not maintain those social amenities that served both the rich and the poor as put in place by this same buhari.

Confused man tell me how the bolded is possible when he came into power December 1983 and ousted August 1985

There are four major existing refineries as follows:

Old Port Harcourt Refinery; capacity 60,000 bpsd commissioned in 1965.

Warri Refining and Petrochemical Company; capacity 125,000 bpsd commissioned in 1978.

Kaduna Refining and Petrochemical Company; capacity 110,000 bpsd commissioned in 1980.

New Port Harcourt Refinery; capacity 150,000 bpsd commissioned in 1989.

Our debt to GDP is very fine, Our debt to Revenue is quite fine, all developed countries borrowed thier way to progress

Yes nigeria borrowed to complete Abuja-Kaduna rail, however its annual turnover and profit after expenditure is in the range of several billions

Our Infrastructural deficit stands at atleast $50 - $100 billion USD, if lagos to Kano rail cost $5.6billion, and Lagos - Calabar cost withing that range, rail alone needs 20 billion, while power needs $10bn, and roads, Ajaokuta steel plant and other project needs $30billion, 2.3 bpd crude oil sales with IOC taking 40% wont give us revenue fast enough to develop when our population growth is 3%

To the Dunce qouting me, why not suggest another financial plan for FG outside borowing, since our revenue is constant at 2.3mbpd crude oil sales we share with oil companies and our Population growth is 3% yearly

..

BMC trying so hard to justify his N30k stipend, what ever happend to all the electioneering promises during the campaigns to diversify the country's economy base from oil by harnessing the agricultural and abundant solid mineral deposit across the country.

Mr man it is 6 years already this government has been in power and all you can do is come up with this lame excuses, I can see what ever it is they gave to you Execrable lot is incurable.
