Princewill Dike, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State, praised President Bola Tinubu and former governor Rochas Okorie Wike for their commitment to development during a recent presidential campaign rally. Dike spoke with journalists shortly after the event at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium in Port Harcourt. He described the rally as a defining moment in the state’s political history, emphasizing the shared vision between Tinubu and Wike for economic growth and infrastructure improvement.
