Speaking with journalists after the tour, Rivers State Deputy Governor, Dr. Ipalibo Harry Banigo, berated officials of the immediate past administration for embarking on the vandalism of properties of government.
Also speaking, the immediate past Deputy Governor of the state, Tele Ikuru, regretted that officials of the Amaechi administration would stoop so low to steal furniture, coat of arms, crested rugs and electrical fittings in the Government House, urging the governor to take steps to ensure that all those involved in the looting of the facilities are brought to book.
He said: “It is unimaginable that the beds, chairs and official crested rugs in the Governor’s official quarters were stolen. Even the foam they left is Mouka foam, which they used to replace the original foam.
