Governor Nyesom Wike of River State has invited members of opposition political parties to inaugurate projects in the oil-rich South-South state.
Members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Labour Party (LP) were invited to the Fourth Quarter 2022 Project Commissioning in Rivers.
The week-long programme commenced on Monday, November 14, and would end on Friday, November 18, 2022.
Wike, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), invited President Muhammadu Buhari and former Edo State Governor, Adams Oshiomhole – both of the APC.
Also, LP’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi; and Emir of Kano, HRH Aminu Ado Bayero made the list.
The monarch is scheduled to inaugurate the Dr Peter Odili Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease Diagnostic and Treatment Centre in the Obio-Akpor Local Government Area of Rivers on Monday.
Oshiomhole is planned to commission the Rumuepirikom Flyover in Obio-Akpor on Wednesday while Obi will inaugurate the Nkpolu-Oroworokwo Flyover on Thursday in Port Harcourt, the state capital.
Also, Buhari will commission the Nabo Graham Douglas Campus, Nigerian Law School, in Obio/Akpor on Friday.
This is not the first time Wike invited opposition party stalwarts to commission projects in Rivers. In August, the Rivers governor invited his Lagos counterpart, Babajide Sanwo-Olu to inaugurate the Orochiri-Worukwo (Waterline Junction) flyover in Port Harcourt.
