Wike Places New Lock Down In Rivers - Starts Sunday Till Further Notice by igwesylv: 8:25pm On May 13, 2020 |
![]() Although there is ease of Lock down in Rivers State which is to elapse on Sunday, the Governor Nyesom Wike has placed the State on a Total Lock Down. Wike relaxed the total lockdown in Obio-Akpor and Port Harcourt Local Government Areas scheduled to take effect from tomorrow Thursday, May 14, 2020. Location of the Lockdown is Port Harcourt and Obio Akpor Local Government Areas Governor Wike in a state broadcast said while on routine monitoring, he observed how difficult it has been for residents to access money from their banks to make purchases during the Two-Day window that was given. In consideration of the foregoing, the concerns of our people, and the need for residents to replenish their supplies, especially, the State Security Council has decided to impose a night-time curfew and review the effective date of the complete lockdown on Obio/Akpor and Port Harcourt City Local Government Areas from the 14th of May 2020 to Sunday 17th May 2020 by 8.00 p.m. “Consequently, there will be: a night-time curfew in Obio/Akpor and Port Harcourt Local Government Areas from 8.00 p.m. to 6.00 a.m. on Thursday 14th May 2020, Friday 15th May 2020, and Saturday 16th May 2020. “While the total lockdown on Obio/Akpor and Port Harcourt Local Government Areas will immediately follow from 8.00 p.m. Sunday 17th May 2020 until further notice. Here is Governor Nyesom Wike State Broadcast Speech My Dear Good People of Rivers State, As we all know, the restoration of the total lockdown order in Obio/Akpor and Port Harcourt Local Government Areas was to take effect from Thursday, May 14th 2020. However, while on routine monitoring, I observed how difficult it has been for residents to access money from their banks to make purchases during the Two-Day window that was given. This difficulty has, no doubt, prevented most residents of the two affected Local Government Areas from preparing and making adequate provisions for the upkeep of their families when the lockdown returns. Time and time again, we have said that the lockdown is a necessary measure, universally applied, to mitigate community transmission of the covid-19 pandemic. Our own situation is not and can’t be different. Covid-19 is not only here with us; it is increasing in number of infections as we recorded 16 new cases for today, the highest since the index case, which goes to confirm not only my personal apprehension for our State and the need to be d tough in our mitigation strategies. And so, there is no room for politics in this matter. We must discharge our abiding duty to use the primary weapons at our disposal to combat this virus and contain its spread, lest we regret the consequences of our inactivity and indiscretions. We understand the consequential difficulties, but what we can do in the circumstance is to appeal to the public to endure the attendant discomfort as inevitable sacrifice for the common good of all. Suffice to mention that no deliberate harm is ever intended or targeted at anybody neither are we happy with the prevailing hardship on the people as a result of measures we have adopted to fight this deadly virus. But, the overall interest, security and wellbeing of our people remain our primary motivation for what we have done and will continue to do to combat and protect our State from the Covid-19 scourge. In consideration of the foregoing, the concerns of our people, and the need for residents to replenish their supplies, especially, the State Security Council has decided to impose a night-time curfew and review the effective date of the complete lockdown on Obio/Akpor and Port Harcourt City Local Government Areas from the 14th of May 2020 to Sunday 17th May 2020 by 8.00 p.m. Consequently, there will be: READ FULL: https://authenticng.com/wike-places-new-lock-down-in-rivers-starts-sunday-till-further-notice/ |

![]() When I said Wike is stupid people quote me wrong This man have a motive for this unessary war he declared upon himself. If Wike feels that the solution for COVID-19 is the total lockdown he declared on the people of Rivers State, then why relax it for few days. He should know that this few days is enough for the viruses to spray over the state. Truly, the lockdown is just an empty threat and punishment Wike imposes on Rivers people and uncalled for. What exactly does Wike know about this pandemic? He foolishly tour around the state then wait for the quack NCDC officials to present a malaria case in the name of COVID-19 He should be sincere and approach the federal government for his share of the 10B, and free Rivers people to hustle for their lives. |

What is the essence of this lock down when the state is still recording new cases of infection everyday even more than some states who are not on lock down. The effect of all this will be felt by the poor masses. |

I guess thugonor Wike negotiated with coronavirus so they would be no new infections despite the fact that so many people are cramming themselves in markets, supermarkets and public transportations. All this our coconut headed leaders are just wonderful. |
