The Rivers State Government officially announced the commencement of the 10-day project commissioning, with the events slated to begin on Monday, March 3, 2025.

According to a statement by the Commissioner for Information, Joe Johnson, the initiative will span multiple local government areas within Rivers State, including Port Harcourt City, Obio/Akpor, Khana, and Okrika, and will even extend to neighbouring Bayelsa State.

Johnson also revealed that the projects cut across critical sectors, including housing, fire service, security, healthcare, education, and judiciary welfare.

The statement reads in part: “The commissioning will see the active participation of key government officials, community leaders, and stakeholders in various sectors.

“The public is therefore encouraged to join in celebrating these significant milestones as the government continues to work towards sustainable development, growth and improved quality of life for all citizens and residents of our cherished Rivers State.”

From March 3 through 14, the timeline of the project commissioning is as follows:

March 3 – Government House Staff Quarters, PHALGA

March 4 – State Fire Service Headquarters & Firefighting Vehicles, PHALGA

March 5 – Handing Over of Helicopter to the Nigerian Air Force, Obio/Akpor

March 6 – Borokiri Fire Service Station & Firefighting Vehicles, PHALGA

March 7 – Rumuodonmaya Fire Service Station & Firefighting Vehicles, Obio/Akpor

March 10 – Akpor Monarch’s Palace & Residence, Obio/Akpor

March 11 – Judges’ Quarters, PHALGA

March 12 – Bori General Hospital, Khana LGA

March 13 – Okrika Grammar School Upgrades, Okrika LGA

March 14 – Furnishing & Electrification of Nigerian Law School, Yenagoa Campus, Bayelsa State

The New Diplomat reports that this comes after the Supreme Court of Nigeria delivered a series of judgments regarding the political landscape of Rivers State.

The Supreme Court barred the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) from releasing federal allocations to the Rivers State Government. The apex court also nullified the recently held local government elections in the oil-rich state.
