Wike: We’ll Make Rivers’ Varsity One Of The Best

Rivers State governor, Chief Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has declared that his administration will support the Rivers State University to emerge as one of the best global centres of learning.
This is as he laid the foundation for the secretariat of the Students Union Government (SUG) of the Rivers State University, Nkpolu Oroworokwo, Port Harcourt.
Wike, who spoke yesterday while commissioning the Faculty of Science and Technical Education Building of the university, which was funded by his administration, said the development of facilities and infrastructure at the institution will continue to receive priority attention.
