Their endorsement was contained in a statement signed by all caucus members and presented to the media by Senator Barry Mpigi during a press briefing in Port Harcourt on Saturday.
The caucus, comprising two Senators and seven members of the House of Representatives, said their support was based on the clear achievements of Tinubu’s agenda, which they described as “effective and steadily progressing.”
The nine lawmakers in the Rivers caucus are Senator Barry Mpigi, Senator Allwell Onyesoh, Rt. Hon. Dumnamene Dekor, Solomon Bob, Hon. Felix Nwaeke, Hon. Kelechi Nwogu, Cyril Hart, Victor Obuzor, and Blessing Amadi.
They called on other presidential aspirants ahead of the next general election to reconsider their ambitions.
The lawmakers praised Tinubu’s economic policies, emphasizing that his Renewed Hope Agenda offers the most credible path to Nigeria’s economic recovery and future prosperity.
Their statement reads:
“We, the National Assembly members from Rivers State—Senators and House of Representatives members—express our deep appreciation to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the trust and confidence reposed in our leader, His Excellency Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, through his appointment as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory. We are delighted by the President’s public recognition and commendation of the Minister, whom he fittingly described as the ‘Master of Infrastructure.’
Having critically examined the President’s economic strategies, aimed at reviving our previously deteriorating economy under the Renewed Hope Agenda, and acknowledging the extensive decay and economic challenges inherited on May 29, 2023—including a burdensome debt profile and soaring inflation caused by the Central Bank’s N22.7 trillion Ways and Means overdraft between 2015 and 2023 under former President Muhammadu Buhari—we affirm that President Tinubu’s economic blueprint remains the surest path out of our nation’s current social and economic woes.”
