Our attention
has been drawn to a statement credited to Mr. Chris Finebone, the publicity
secretary of the APC, that the state government have killed the culture of
Rivers state and denied the people of Rivers state the much needed fun, by
canceling this year’s CarniRiv. The statement said, that the state government
should have made the CarniRiv its priority project.
We wish to
remind Chris Finebone , Orji Ngofa and the leadership of the APC, that the
state government issued a statement, that it would not be organizing this
year’s CarniRiv, due to the dwindling revenue being experienced in the country,
and the huge debt left behind by Rotimi
Amaechi and the APC.
The state government said it will be more purposeful in
government spendings, and shall undertake the payments of workers’ salaries,
arrears and pension, and carry out other developmental projects in the state, than
embark on this year’s CarniRiv.
However, the state government promised to carry on with a
CarniRiv festival, that truly reflects our culture when funds improve.
