River State APC Hails Governor Amaechi, Parker on Ebola
Containment
The Rivers State
Chapter of the All Progressives Congress has hailed the Rivers State Governor,
Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi and the State Commissioner for Health, Dr.
Sampson Parker for their doggedness in successfully checkmating the Ebola Viral
Disease [EVD] in Rivers State.
In a statement signed
by the State Chairman of the APC, Chief (Dr) Davies Ibiamu Ikanya [JP], the
party attributed the successful containment of the dreaded Ebola disease, which
was imported into Rivers State from Lagos, to the foresightedness, commitment
and political will on the part of Governor Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi and Dr.
Parker who toiled day and night to ensure that the people and residents of
Rivers State were protected from the danger of an Ebola epidemic.
Chief Ikanya also attributed the successful containment of
Ebola in Rivers and Lagos States, despite being huge population centres in the
country, to the proactive and modern-day credentials of the two governors and
the All Progressives Congress.
“We are immensely
proud of our dear governor, Rt’ Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi and the able
Commissioner for Health, Dr. Sampson Parker for not only talking the talk but
working the talk. While the governor showed his usual leadership in the
management of what would have assumed epidemic proportions, the Commissioner
put in sustained legwork to ensure that we all are safe from Ebola,” the
statement said.
“The APC in Rivers State will remain eternally grateful to
our darling Governor for always working to protect the lives and property of
the people and residents of our dear state,” it said.
In the statement,
Chief Ikanya identified the State Health Commissioner, Dr. Sampson Parker, as a
hardworking and committed member of the State Executive Council and the APC.
