Rivers State Governor,  Nyesom Wike, has declared that God came down and personally  intervened in the electoral turbulence of the state to give the state a desired victory.

Speaking during a solidarity and Thanksgiving Service by the Anglican Bishops of the Province of Niger Delta at the Government House,  Port Harcourt , Wike said that he saw the mighty working hand of God during the elections.

"We give God the glory  for what has happened.  During the period of turbulence,  the Church  prayed and God heard the prayers.

"God came down and intervened on our behalf.  Our Thanksgiving to God will never be enough. But for the intervention of God, there is nothing anyone would have done.
"All the conspiracies and gang-ups were heavy, but God showed his presence. When you have  challenges,  then you know there is God.”

Wike urged the clergy to pray for God to give him the wisdom  to appoint officials that will be committed to the development  of  Rivers State during his second term.



He said: "I need your prayers for God to bring to me the right people who will work with me. People who will work with me for the good of our state.

"People do all manner of things these days to manipulate the system. We need God’s guidance for people who will be sincere to work for the state".
 Wike said he is not carried away by congratulations and praises as he remains focused and will never let down his guard.

"I will not let my guard down.  I don't trust anybody totally.  This is because circumstances can change anyone. My firm belief is in God, who will never change," he said.
