Amaechi: A Good Role Model for Development, Capacity and Public Service – Kpodoh
A former Security Adviser to the Bayelsa State Government , Chief Perekeme Kpodoh has said that the former governor of Rivers State and immediate past Minister of Transportation, Rt. Honourable Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi is a good role model for development, capacity and service.
Chief Perekeme Kpodoh, said this in a chat with newsmen in Yenagoa and cautioned those sponsoring the smear campaign against him to stop and support the contributions being made by Rt. Hon. Rotimi Amaechi.
He described the smear campaign allegedly being launched by some politicians in the Niger Delta region against the immediate past Minister of Transport, as a waste of time.
Perekeme noted that though the smear campaign are the handiwork of the enemies of the region, the progressive people of the region appreciate the contributions of the Former Rivers State governor appreciating him as a role model on infrastructural development, capacity building and performance in the public service to the region.
According to Chief Kpodoh, ‘”we don’t have many politicians like Rotimi Amaechi in the Niger Delta. These Niger Delta Governors and politicians should learn from him on the issues of his numerous contributions to Rivers and Bayelsa State in terms of political appointments, capacity development , infrastructural development and connecting the region to the National politics.
“if you visit Port Harcourt, you will see his appreciable legacies as a Governor. None has done such in Bayelsa. Bayelsa Politicians only know about uncompleted projects, lack of continuity on previous administration projects and they take stolen money out of the state with local sense of investment.
“For me, I regret that we don’t have the likes of Rotimi Amaechi in Bayelsa. Bayelsa would have been turned into hub of completed projects and sensible issue of development. Bayelsa remain the yard of abandoned and uncompleted projects. There are issues of insecurity and total darkness.
‘We also commend him for the unconditional support given to the people of the riverine area and the Ijaws of Niger Delta to produce governor of Rivers state in the last election. We thank him for the effort and we are still behind you”, he said referring to Rt. Honourable Amaechi.
