Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has declared that aside the planned reliance on the security agencies to rig elections in 2019, the All Progressive Congress (APC) has no electoral value.
He said the disgraceful poor performance of the APC has totally devalued  the party. He said  Nigerians have discovered that the APC is full of empty promises, with no accompanying  implementation.
Commissioning the Igbogo road in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area on Tuesday, Governor Wike said: “Several promises, not one fulfilled. I have challenged  the APC  to come to Rivers State and say what they have done.
“If not for the dependence on security  agencies for rigging of elections, no APC member will come forward to contest elections “.
The governor said where democracy is practiced  in line with the rule of law, PDP members would have gone to sleep, knowing  they would walk over APC  in 2019.
On developments  in Rivers State, Governor Wike said while other state ended their democracy  day on Monday, his administration will continue the commissioning of several projects in the  coming weeks.
He said that for the people of Akpor Kingdom, the administration has executed  projects in all the ten communities  of the area.
He informed that the Rivers State Government will start the to reach out to all supporters, which will be in form of direct empowerment.
Commissioner of Works, Iheanyichuwu Bathuel said that the Igbogo road has revived the community, adding value to the residential  houses in the area.
