Rivers State Commissioner for
Information, Emma Okah has faulted remarks by ex-governor Rotimi Amaechi, that
the state was well protected under his administration.
Amaechi, current Minister of
Transportation, had said he provided adequate security during his tenure but
that the situation has worsened since his successor, Wike took over.
Reacting, Okah said the former
governor was wrong in his analysis.
According to Okah, “Under his
(Amaechi) tenure, people were also being kidnapped and killed. Charles Nsiegbe
was killed in Port Harcourt during his tenure.
“Ambassador Ignatius Ajuru was
killed at that time while Archbishop Ignatius Kattey was kidnapped during his
administration.
“Security agencies are purely
federal concerns, but the current governor has done everything he could do as a
governor to support security agencies by providing equipment and logistics despite
provocations from a section of the police.”
