Speaking while commissioning ultra-modern faculty buildings for the Faculty of Environmental Sciences and Faculty of Management Sciences, at the Rivers State University (RSU), Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, yesterday, declared that he would not be deceived by the antics of political jobbers who continue to propose a 2019 vice president position to him.
He said; “Nobody will use the position of the vice president to deceive me into wasting the funds of Rivers state. Our funds will be used to develop Rivers state.”
The governor who urged Nigerians to be part of the process to achieve the right leadership for the country in 2019, commented on the facilities at RSU, and said: “Facilities are vital to the growth of education. Previous administrations never thought it wise to develop facilities in our institutions.
“Every faculty should have a dedicated building for learning and teaching. We cannot talk about quality of education without classrooms and offices. That is why we are working round the clock to build necessary facilities at Rivers State University.”
Wike further said the new College of Medical Sciences building flagged off by his administration, would be completed and commissioned in February 2018.
“I will release N500 million for the completion of the College of Medical Sciences building in the school.
“I promised to release N1 billion for further infrastructure development in the university. I have released N750 million. Now that I have seen the commitment of the school administration, I will immediately release the balance of N250 million,” he said.
