Wike Opens Up On Rivers Commissioner’s Suspension

Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike, has said he suspended the state’s commissioner for Works, Mr Kevin Wachukwu because of negligence of duty and failure to monitor projects effectively. “This is the time to deliver good governance to the people of Rivers State and I will not tolerate negligence of duty. The failure to deploy site engineers to these project three project sites means that the government and people of the state can be short-changed via poor quality delivery. “The contracts have provision for site engineers and project vehicles. There was no reason why it was not enforced. If I am always at project sites supervising the quality and pace of work, there is no reason why the commissioner should not do the same. This goes to other commissioners. We are in the era of governance and every official must work for the people of the state”, Wike said addressing Journalists in Port Harcourt.
