”GOVERNOR NYESOM WIKE APPLAUDS PRESIDENT BUHARI FOR SACKING SERVICE CHIEFS”.

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has commended President Muhammadu Buhari for appointing new Service Chiefs for the country.

Governor Wike noted that even though the appointments came late, the President should be commended for listening to the voice of the people.

The Governor in a statement by the State Commissioner for Information and Communications, Paulinus Nsirim, challenged the new appointees to see their appointments as an opportunity to re-engineer the nation’s security architecture which has suffered tremendous setback in the last five years.

Governor Wike noted that Nigerians who lost confidence in the former Service Chiefs are looking up to the new appointees to make the desired change.

He called on all levels of government to give the Service Chiefs the needed support they would require to execute their assignments.
