Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has challenged anti-graft agencies to investigate his administration’s spending of state revenue.
Governor Wike threw up the challenge while speaking on Thursday at the commissioning of the Rumuola Flyover in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of the state.
He boasted that the resources of Rivers State are evident in the numerous projects carried out by his administration.
“Let anybody, let EFCC come and probe whether these contracts are real or not if Rivers people ask me I can say go to Rumuola flyover, go to GRA flyover go to Rebisi Flyover, let them come and tell us where they kept the money of Rivers State before”.
The governor also disclosed that he spent at “least seven billion naira” in each of the nine flyovers constructed by his administration.
He further warned against the stealing of the manholes on the newly constructed flyovers and road, adding that those involved will be seriously dealt with.
