‘Rivers will not accept RUGA settlement in any form’

Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike has re-affirmed the state’s rejection of RUGA settlements for herdsmen in whatever form planned by the Federal Government.

Wike, who spoke at a thanksgiving service in his honour by all the Anglican Dioceses of Rivers State at St. Paul’s Cathedral, Port Harcourt yesterday, said that the state could only donate ocean water to the system via the laying of water pipelines to serve the cattle in the northern part of the country.
