Rivers State Government has stated that it will not participate in the Federal Government’s Ruga Settlements for herdsmen.
The Rivers State Government in a statement signed by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Information, Paulinus Nsirim noted that the state has no land for the implementation of such a policy.
It noted that second term of His Excellency, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, Governor Wike has prioritised commercial agriculture, hence all available arable land in the state will be needed to drive commercial agriculture across the state to create employment for Rivers youths.
The State Government emphasised that it has not given any approval for the siting of Ruga settlements anywhere in Rivers State. It added that no such approval will come from the Rivers State Government for the Ruga settlements.
The Statement reiterated that Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike will continue to defend the interest of Rivers people, who have overwhelmingly rejected Cattle Colonies, Ruga Settlements and any such policy.
Rivers indigenesare hereby advised to join the State Government to protect all arable lands by reporting any form of encroachment under whatever guise.
Simeon Nwakaudu,
Special Assistant to the Rivers State Governor, Electronic Media.

  2. One more thing. In my opinion that there are quite a few travel insurance sites of respected companies than enable you to enter holiday details and have you the quotes. You can also purchase this international travel cover policy on the net by using the credit card. All you need to do should be to enter the travel particulars and you can begin to see the plans side-by-side. Merely find the system that suits your financial budget and needs and after that use your bank credit card to buy them. Travel insurance on the web is a good way to search for a dependable company with regard to international travel insurance. Thanks for expressing your ideas.
