What was your achievement as the Chairman Presidential Taskforce on Electricity because there is no steady power in Nigeria yet.........Since you could not do anything as the Chairman of the Taskforce to restore steady power supply in the country,it means you won't still achieve anything if you are voted in as Governor of Rivers State.
