Fubara Raises Concerns Over Financial Burden of Projects and Debts Linked to Governor Wike

Governor Siminalayi Fubara has said the Rivers State Government is facing heavy debts due to the increase in the cost of projects initiated by former Governor Nyesom Wike. Many contractors are reportedly demanding payment of millions of naira that are yet to be paid before the end of Governor Wike's term.   

Tomihara, who once served as the head of the state comptroller, said he plans to investigate the financial activities of the previous administration. He emphasized that the true value of the project should be revealed by presenting a white paper during the study.   

Speaking at the meeting held on Aleto-Ogale-Ebubu-Eteo Road (Old Bori Road) in Eleme Local Government Area, Governor Fubara emphasized the importance of the project in terms of repairing the deteriorated roads on Eleme/East-West Road. Governor of Abia State, Alex Oti, who attended the event, spoke about the importance of humility in public service and giving special power to God.
