Port Harcourt — Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, has said his administration was rebuilding education infrastructure for Rivers people.
Fubara assured the people that his administration would sustain the support to them so that they could achieve their mandate and succeed in helping improve educational development in the state.
Fubara made the assertion, when he visited the Captain Elechi Amadi Polytechnic at Rumuola, Port Harcourt, where a number of projects that included Entrepreneurship Centre, Staff Office and Senate Building, were ongoing.
The governor said the entrepreneurship centre was strategic because it would serve the need for functional education that would develop the occupational skills of students to become productive citizens.
"Part of our programme, we assured the good people of Rivers State that we are not going to limit what we are doing to roads alone but will extend to the education sector.
"We discussed with the Governing Council on their inauguration, demanding to know what the basic needs of the school are, and they mentioned a lot of them - accommodation, office block and completion of the Senate Building that has been on for the past eight years.
"We assured them that we are going to do that, and we have already released 50 per cent of the cost for the completion, and also for other two projects that are ongoing."
