Rivers Government renames state polytechnic after Ken Saro Wiwa

Rivers state governor, Nyesom Wike has renamed the Rivers state Polytechnic after late author and environmental rights activist, late Ken Saro-Wiwa. In a statement released yesterday July 9th and signed by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Opunabo Inko-Tariah, Governor Wike said the school is being re-named after the late activist because of his achievements and legacies
"In honour of his monumental achievements and legacies, the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, has renamed the Rivers State Polytechnic in Bori as Ken Ule Beeson Saro-Wiwa Polytechnic. The memories of avatars like the late Saro-Wiwa, who fought selflessly for the betterment of society and humanity, should not be consigned to oblivion, more so, when such personalities are revered beyond the shores of the country,” he said

Wow this is good! According to Ken Saro-wiwa, "A boil growing in one's nose is more painful than an earthquake in China." It is better that the Polytechnic is renamed after him than some useless politicians who have not contributed anything to the advancement of society.

But the name is too long naw. They should have used it for their state library, not state poly. Anyway, his people might like it and am here drinking Panadol for them.

Upon all the praises given to former gov Amechi, he couldn't do anything to honor one of the GREATEST MAN in Nigeria. He fought the Military with the last drop of His blood. Thank you gov. Wike. They say a lot of bad stuff about you from the camp of the Amechis, but you did a good job here

Wat is dis moron saying? Anyway most rivers pple r known to be so cheap. Renaming a polytecnic just to gain favour from olodos like u. Not to talk of the saboteur like ken saro wiwa killed by his country. Mtchew!

Commendable gesture by Wike and apt recognition for Saro Wiwa, a human rights activist for all forward-looking Naijas.

Unknown said...

My able governor, ride on!!! We are solidly behind you

迪迪 said...

Changing the name of the only poly in the state won't do it no good. We have secondary schools bigger than the re-named poly.

ary said...

Very good gesture, we need to honor those who deserve it.
