Nigerians: vote out PDP in 2015 The governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, has urged Nigerians to vote out the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in 2015, while assuring that the All Progressives Congress (APC) will ensure good governance. He admonished the people of Rivers State to continue to give peace a chance and not to be deceived by the antics of the leaders and members of the PDP. Amaechi, who is also the Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF), also lauded the Obio/Akpor Local Government Caretaker Committee in Rivers State, led by Dr. Lawrence Chuku, for donating twenty-two 500 KVA transformers to communities in the 17 wards of the LGA. He also commended the members of the caretaker committee for providing four 18-Seater buses for Elelenwo, Rumuokoro and Ekinigbo council-of-chiefs, as well as the Obio/Akpor Youths’ Association. The Rivers State governor, who was represented by the Chief-of-Staff, Government House, Port Harcourt, Chief Tony Okocha, stated these yesterday while inaugurating and handing over the 22 transformers and four buses to the communities at the council’s secretariat in Rumuodomanya, Port Harcourt. Amaechi described as excellent, the performance of the members of the caretaker committee, with emphasis on improving the welfare of the people of the area and to draw the people at the grassroots closer to government. He said: “I congratulate the Dr. Lawrence Chuku-led caretaker committee on the level of performance in the past four months. I am particularly happy to be associated with the caretaker committee for championing the cause to improve the wellbeing of Obio/Akpor LGA people. “The transformers will help in the distribution of electricity and encourage our businesses to grow. The members of the caretaker committee have shown that they are responsive and responsible to the people. I am equally excited that most communities in the various wards will take home what belong to them, and the communities are obliged to jealously safeguard the transformers. Earlier in his welcome address, Chuku noted that the provision of transformers and buses for communities in the LGA was in line with the vision and mission of the APC, which he said was targeted at improving the welfare of the people.
