President Muhammadu Buhari will on October 21 present the award to the governor at the State House Conference Centre, Abuja, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Mr. Boss Mustapha, said in a letter.

The letter, signed by the Permanent Secretary (General Services) in the SGF’s Office, Dr. Nnamdi Maurice Mbaeri, was addressed to Wike,

Since he assumed office on May 29, 2015, Wike has been widely acclaimed for his infrastructure strides in Rivers and its attendant impact on the state’s development.

He is reputed for his strides in road construction and rehabilitation; the construction of an unprecedented 12 flyovers in the state, healthcare infrastructure; education, health, sports, and agriculture, among others, leading many to address him as ‘Mr. Projects.’

The governor has, at several fora, vowed not to rest on his oars until his last day in office.

He said: “The only way we can show gratitude to the people for the confidence they reposed in us is to continue to serve them with all our heart and might.”
