Nyesom Wike Nyesom Wike

Governor Nyesom Wike has stated that Rivers State has been peaceful and enjoying Blessings because of the prayers of Christians.

Wike disclosed this while speaking at the 2020 Diocesan City Wide Mega Crusade of the Diocese of the Niger Delta North, in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital.

He said: “All through last year, despite the security challenges in the country, Rivers State remained relatively peaceful. The security of Rivers State is not because of the security agencies, but due to God’s enablement.

“The peace that comes from God is necessary for all business activities to thrive and people to engage in education.”

He added that his administration will continue to partner with the Church as he maintained that Rivers State is a Christian State and will remain so.

“You have heard this several times before and I will repeat it here before thousands of Christian Faithful who are Anglicans. Rivers State is a Christian State.

“No matter the Intimidation and conspiracy, we will continue to declare that Rivers State is a Christian State. We are reaping the blessing of God”, he said.
