Rivers State's New Journey: Ibas Tasks SSG Prof Worika To Hit The Ground Running

Rivers State Gets a Fresh Start: Ibas Urges SSG Prof Worika to Take Immediate Action

Listen up, folks. Vice-Admiral Ibok Ete Ekwe Ibas, the Sole Administrator of Rivers State, has just handed down a bold directive to the newly appointed Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Prof Ibibia Lucky Worika. It’s clear that Ibas wants no time wasted. He’s urging Worika to dive headfirst into his duties, and he’s not mincing words about it. This directive came just after the official inauguration ceremony held at the Executive Chambers of Government House on Wednesday night, as reported by Naija News.

In a heartfelt message, Ibas congratulated Prof Worika on his new role, emphasizing that this appointment wasn’t just a routine decision—it’s a bold step forward for the state. He made it crystal clear that Worika was chosen not just because of his administrative skills, but because he brings a rare combination of expertise in law, policy, and international governance. This, Ibas noted, aligns perfectly with the mission to restore law, order, integrity, and public trust in Rivers State.

Administrator Ibas Sets the Tone for His Governance

Ibas didn’t stop there. He reminded everyone present about his maiden address to the people of Rivers State, where he laid out his vision for the administration. He promised a governance model rooted in transparency, accountability, and service. These aren’t just words for Ibas; they’re guiding principles for how he plans to run the state. And he’s counting on Prof Worika to play a pivotal role in making this vision a reality.

Addressing the new SSG directly, Ibas said, “Prof Worika, the task ahead is challenging, but your track record leaves no doubt in our minds that you’re up to the task. Rivers State needs your intellect, your grit, and your unwavering dedication. Together, we’ll write a new chapter of progress for this great state.” He went on to stress that Prof Worika’s role would be critical in driving this vision forward. Every policy, decision, and action must align with the administration’s mandate to restore law and order, stabilize the political landscape, and create the conditions necessary for the restoration of democratic institutions and representation.

The Call to Action: No Time to Waste

Ibas didn’t sugarcoat the urgency of the situation. He told Prof Worika, “You don’t have time to settle in. Roll up your sleeves and get to work with the team. Our civil servants, who are crucial to the functioning of this administration, need your leadership and cooperation. Together, we must ensure that the state continues to function effectively during this period.”

To the civil servants, Ibas added, “Permanent Secretaries and the entire civil service, once again, I urge your cooperation and support. We’re all in this together, and with your help, we can achieve our objectives and bring positive change to Rivers State.”

With these words, Vice-Admiral Ibas has set the tone for a new era of governance in Rivers State. It’s clear that Prof Worika has big shoes to fill, but if his past is any indication, he’s more than ready for the challenge. The people of Rivers State are watching, and the clock is ticking.
