the people of Rivers, urging the appointees to regard their appointments as
means to add value to the governance of the state rather than for
self-enrichment.

you have opportunity like this, use it to prove your capacity, this can be the
platform for promotion, this is not an opportunity to make money, just serve,
what is due you will come to you,” Wike said and urged them to be loyal at all
times and contribute to the advancement of the people of the State.
