Ex-Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi has reiterated that All Progressive Congress (APC) Gubernatorial candidate, Mr. Tonye Cole will surely bring home the bacon if elected as the next governor of the state.
Amaechi who had embarked door-to-door campaign for Cole assured people of Rivers that Cole’s victory will usher in a new beginning in the state, adding that the APC candidate has promised to revisit hedge fund policy which is set aside to boost business for indigenes and those who live in Rivers State
“When I was leaving government, we left N50 billion in what they call hedge fund.
“Hedge fund allows you to borrow at low or zero interest rate to boost business for indigenes and those who live in Rivers State.
” I shared this idea with Cole, and he agreed. As soon as he is voted to power by you, we shall re-establish this hedge fund.
” It is not just to help you do business, it is also to help us create employment,” he said.
“On Saturday, go out and vote. No army is stronger than the people. Stand your ground. If they don’t upload, don’t let them go.
“No INEC officer should leave your unit until he has uploaded the results and given a copy to the parties’ agent. It is called people’s power.
“If Cole (APC) wins on Saturday, things will begin to change from that day. You have a choice to decide. The power is in your votes, ’’ he said.
He maintained that he will ensure that no voter is intimidated by Nyesom Wike-led opposition
