Governor Wike made the assertion on Thursday while inaugurating some critical road projects in Port Harcourt Local Government Area.

Governor Wike said he has always advised political officer holders or others in positions of trust to be aware that when their people confide in them, they should use the opportunity to better their lot.

The governor stressed that such leaders endeavour to change the socioeconomic life of their people who they represent in a manner that make living pleasurable for them.

When you have an opportunity, when the people give you their confidence, you must also make them happy. How do you make them happy? It is by making sure you provide them with things that change their environment, with things that will better their lives, with things that will improve economic activities in their area.”

Governor Wike reiterated that Rivers State has offered him bounteous opportunities to accomplish so much in his private and political life.

The governor said, for such benevolence, he is eternally indebted to the State and will protect its interest in all his life.

He emphasised that nothing will make him to sell the State for anything, not also for a pot of pottage like others who only seek personal benefits do.

For what Rivers State has given me, I owed them (Rivers people) a lot in my life and I will continue to protect their interest. I am not going to sell Rivers State to anybody for a pot of porridge. And that is why if I tell you this is the right place, know it is the right place. I am not going to deceive you. I am not one of those leaders who are running around for their personal interest.” – Wike said.
