Former Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Prince Chibudom Nwuche, has mobilized stakehokders in Ahoada East and Ahoada West local government areas of Rivers State in support of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyesom Wike.
Nwuche on Tuesday brought the stakehokders including members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC) under the Team Rivers for Tinubu (TRT) thanking the President and Wike for his appointment as the Chairman of the Southsouth Development Commission (SSDC).
Addressing the elders, women, youths and party leaders from the two local government areas, Nwuche said President Tinubu deserved the support of all stakehokders for the love he had shown to Wike, the Rivers people and the Niger Delta region.
He said the President had continued to stand by Wike and to empower him with all necessary resources and encouragement he required to drive his vision for the FCT.
Nwuche, who described Wike as an excellent performer, said the former Rivers Governor had transformed Abuja the same way he turned around the fortunes of Rivers during his administration as a governor.
He said: “The FCT is now wearing a new look with many projects completed and ongoing. Even those, who do not like the government can’t deny the fact that the government of President Tinubu with Chief Nyesom Wike is delivering the dividends of democracy and is performing spectacularly well”.

Nwuche urged all stakehokders to support Tinubu for a second term in 2027 saying no coalition would stop the President’s reelection.
He told the people not to be cajoled by the coalition leaders, whom he described as people united by their hunger for power without any genuine intentions for development.
He said: “President Tinubu came and in his first tenure removed subsidy, which they could not do when they were in power. With the bold reforms and economic transformation of President Tinubu, the states are washed with money and the governors have a lot of money at their disposal to pay salaries and execute projects. The President inherited tough economic challenges, but he is tackling them”.
Nwuche wondered why the coalition leaders were showing desperate hunger for power, a few years after leaving their various political positions and asked them to try again after Tinubu’s eight years in office.
He said: “These people just left power, but they are already hungry for it again. Some of us left our positions about 20 years ago, but are still supporting genuine courses. We are not doing any coalition of power grabbing with them. We are going to support Tinubu’s second term. It is the turn of the South to do eight years and President Tinubu is doing a wonderful job of it”.
