Governor Nyesom Wike on Thursday stated that his administration is committed to the peace process he initiated for the development of the state.
Wike who spoke when clergymen of Ikwerre Origin paid him a solidarity visit said the State Government needs peace to entrench development across the state.
According to him: “We are sincere about the peace process that we initiated. We are not playing politics with the peace process. It is for this reason that the Honourable Attorney General entered a noble prosequi for some persons.
“Government needs peace to entrench development in different parts of the state. However, we are committed to peace that is not against the interest of the state. We are not working for conditional peace”.
He further explained that he will continue to work for the entire state, which he sees as his primary constituency.
He noted that “As a governor, I am from a particular ethnic group, but I am not a governor for only that ethnic group. I am the Governor of Rivers State.
“So, my interest is for the entire State. But somebody must come from somewhere”.
