The Rivers State Government says it is not owing any member of the disbanded Rivers State Task Force on Street Trading, Illegal Markets and Motor Parks salaries.
Dr Tammy Danagogo, the Secretary to the State Government, stated this in Port Harcourt on Friday during an interactive session with a journalist.
He said following Governor Nyesom Wikes’ dissolution of the Task Force, all members who complied with the Governor’s directive to return their ID Cards were cleared for payment.
“As I speak to you, I am certain that all compliant members of the dissolved task force have received their alert,” he said.
He said that the laudable intention of the Governor to restore Port Harcourt and its environs to its Garden City status and engender a rebirth of its aesthetic beauty was almost frustrated due to the rascality and greed of some task force members.
“Please be rest assured that His Excellency would soon introduce a more effective initiative that can help deliver this good intention for all lovers of Rivers State”, he added.
