Apparently throwing jabs at his successor again, the former Rivers governor, who recently pictured Rivers under Governor Nyesom Wike as being in its worst state ever, said he neither politicised development nor insulted traditional rulers during his time as governor.
He told the Elekahia gathering,
“I built a primary school that people were coming to watch. I declared health care free in Rivers State, I did not politicise it. I never insulted any chief or any Rivers man. If you are a Christian, one thing God hates is arrogance and pride.
“We are not here to campaign but to access our wards. They (political opponents) will try to intimidate you. The young men in your ward must not allow them to intimidate you. When will win, first thing will be to bring out money to address hunger and poverty.”
