FIDA’s Award Of Honour On Gov Nyesom Wike, Well Deserved – Rivers PDP Chairman, Bro Obuah

The award of Honour bestowed on Governor Nyesom Wike for his roles in the promotion of women and children’s welfare by the International Federation of Women Lawyers (FIDA) is a reaffirmation that the wisest minds have something yet to learn.

The chairman of the Rivers State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Bro Felix Obuah said this while acknowledging the Governor Wike’s recognition, describing the award as well deserved.

The State PDP boss said if a women group as learned and critical as FIDA can be so impressed with what they have seen of the State under Gov Wike in so short a time, has proved that all the hulla-ba-loo by the opposition in the State was born out of ill-feelings and petty-jealousy.

Congratulating Gov Wike on the Honour, Bro Obuah enjoined His Excellency to forge ahead with his lofty programmes and policies not only for the welfare of women and children but for the entire sectors of the State economy.

Though the women lawyers’ recognition of Gov Wike’s landmark achievements will add impetus to the governor’s efforts, he (Gov Wike) though very appreciative is hardly carried away by such eulogies, Bro Obuah noted, stressing that to promote the social welfare of the entire Rivers people is upper-most in the Gov’s mind and it remains sacrosanct.

The State PDP chairman called for support and prayers for the State governor and his lieutenants to be able to execute government programmes aimed at moving the State forward for the benefit of all Rivers people and those resident in the State.

He described Governor Wike as one of his kind in the leadership history of Rivers State and thanked the International Federal of Women Lawyers for their foresight and boldness to make public their impression without fear or favour.
