The Rivers State Governor, His Excellency, Amaopusenibo, Sir Siminialayi Fubara, GSSRS, has reiterated his drive to transform Rivers State into an economic hub through industrialisation, promotion of small and micro enterprises as well as the provision of critical infrastructure.

Governor Fubara who was represented by the Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, The Right Honourable Comr Victor Oko Jumbo , stated this today at Aluu in Ikwerre Local Government Area while flagging off construction works at the permanent site of the Port Harcourt Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture.

Speaking further, the Governor said "our vision for Rivers State is one of prosperity, where businesses thrive, investments flourish, and opportunities abound for all our residents. The establishment of the Port Harcourt Chamber of Commerce Permanent structure is a testament to our commitment to providing the necessary climate that supports and nurtures our business community."

Governor Fubara who commended the Chamber for their sincere efforts in contributing to the development of Rivers State added that "our administration understands that infrastructure is the bedrock of economic development, that is why we do not trivialise important efforts like that of PHACCIMA.

"Be assured that our commitment towards investing in roads, power, water, and other critical infrastructures that will make Rivers State a preferred destination for businesses and investors is on the priority chart of our operations."


In his remarks, the President of PHCCIMA, Sir Mike Elechi who spoke on behalf of the Chamber said the new complex would serve as a hub for business activities, providing modern facilities and a conducive environment for entrepreneurs to collaborate, innovate, and grow with diverse opportunities for businesses to access resources, support, and networks they need to succeed.

The Caretaker Committee Chairman of Ikwerre Local Government Area, Dr Darlington Orji thanked the Governor for his persistent love for Ikwerre LGA which has made him site many state investments in the LGA, assuring that the entire LGA would reciprocate his love when the time is ripe.
