Power supply: Apologize for failing your people – Rivers ACN tells Amaechi

THE Action Congress of Nigeria,ACN,Rivers State chapter, has asked Governor Rotimi Amaechi to apologise to the people of the state for his inability to fulfil his promise of 24-hour power supply in the state.

It said Ameachi should do so immediately instead of blaming his Commissioner for Power, Augustine Wokocha for non-performance.

The leading opposition party in the state, through its Publicity Secretary, Jerry Needam, urged the Governor to take full responsibility of his failure to deliver on his promise of regular electricity supply.

ACN described the call by Amaechi, who is also the Chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum,NGF, on his Commissioner to tender his resignation as uncalled for.

According to Needam, “It will serve Governor Amaechi better if he fulfils his myriad of promises and ends the cynicism of the people about his administration.”

“Governor Amaechi, who has refused to release funds as and when due to the Rivers State Ministry of Power, should not blame anybody, but should rather take aggressive steps to ensure steady power supply as he promised.”

“Power supply is critical to the development of Rivers State. Looking for who to blame after Governor Amaechi has made many unfilled promises to the people of the state is self-serving and deceitful,” the spokesman said.
