The immediate past Governor of Ondo State, Olusegun Mimiko,
has described as radically distinctive the investment drive of Governor Rivers
State, Nyesom Wike in the healthcare sector and infrastructural development of
the state.
Mimiko asserted that Wike’s efforts to change the
infrastructure of Rivers State’s health sector signpost significant steps
toward the delivery of high-quality healthcare.
The ex-governor in a statement by his media aide, John Paul
Akinduro stated this while flagging off the construction of Indorama –
Agbonchia- Ogale- Ebubu – East/West Link road in Rivers State, stressed that
the projects embarked upon by Wike has what he described as poverty reduction
component.
According to Mimiko, Wike’s accomplishments make him a
standout in Nigerian politics, and he has been dubbed the undeniable face of
the movement for social justice.
He further emphasised that in a multiethnic society like
Nigeria, equality in politics emphasises the importance of identity.
“The development of the human capital dimension is
unmistakable. The practical manner in which Governor Wike’s focused leadership
has enhanced the value of Rivers people, and earned them respect across the
land cannot also be denied.
“To suggest that identity can be discounted in such a
context is to be untruthful. The sensibility of regional groups – indeed, every
demographic compartment – about equity, justice, fairness can simply not be
jettisoned on the altar of political convenience, expediency and braggadocio.”
