Governor Nyesom Wike has said he will not rejoice over the approval of $1.5 billion for the rehabilitation of the Port Harcourt refinery.

The Rivers State governor who was a guest on Channels Television’s Politics Today said it is not the first time the Federal Government is making promises, many of which he says are yet to see the light of day.

“We have had a lot of promises, we have had a lot of talks and nothing has materialized,” Wike stated.

“I am not going to jubilate because the FG has said they have approved $1.5Bn…it is not something to say ‘Hallelujah!’.”
