Osinbajo Gives Governor Nyesom Wike a New Nickname

The acting President Yemi Osinbajo has hailed the Governor of Rivers State Nyesome Wike for the laudable achievements he has so far attained in the state.

Osinbajo used the opportunity of his visit to the state to give the governor a new nickname – ‘Mr Projects’. The new nickname was as a result of the governor’s impressive projects across the state.

The Acting President said the new nickname is deserving because of Wike’s high profile projects across the state. The incident took place at the Government House, Port Harcourt on Monday, February 13.

He said: “I think he deserves the title: ‘Mr Projects’. He is indeed Mr Projects. As we came in today, we had to visit some project sites.

“Rivers State is very important to us. We take matters concerning the state seriously. We will cooperate with Rivers State to develop Nigeria.

“It is in the interest of our people and nation, that we work together for the good of our people. We need to get together to chart the pathway of growth.”

While thanking the acting president, Governor Wike said that the state government will cooperate with the federal government to deliver development to the people.

His words: “I believe that the visit of the Acting President will bring good relationship between the Federal Government and Rivers State.

“Let us allow the interest of the majority in whatever we do. Party must take the back seat. The interest of Rivers state is paramount.

“That is why we are doing everything we can to cooperate with the Federal Government because we believe in the unity of this nation.”
