Rivers state government has issued warnings to African Grassroots Empowerment Organisation and Rivers State Ethnic Youth Leaders Coalition, which is being led by Prince Gomene Namene and Legborsi Yamaabana respectively.
This was disclosed in a statement issued by Commissioner for Information and Communications, Paulinus Nsirim, stating that the state had received intelligence reports that the two groups have threatened to shut down the operations of Julius Berger Nigeria PLC with effect from March 30, 2021 in order to frustrate the ongoing construction of five Flyovers at Rumuola, GRA Junction, Orochiri-Worukwo, Oroabali and Nkpolu-Oroworukwo.
These groups hiding under the guise of demanding for local content and corporate social responsibility from Julius Berger are clearly being sponsored by enemies of the State who are not happy with the infrastructural revolution going on in the State.
While warning the groups that it would not condone their sinister ploy to disrupt the timeline set by government to complete these projects, the statement said that security agencies have been placed on red alert and to prosecute anyone or group of persons that will sabotage the completion of these projects.
It noted that the government will deal decisively with anyone or group that will test her resolve in providing the right infrastructure for the state.
