The Governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Tonye
Cole, has put smiles on the faces of traders at the Fruits and
Vegetables Garden Market, at D-Line axis in Port Harcourt.
The
traders who lost valuables to fire which gutted the market few weeks
ago, were overwhelmed with joy, when Cole arrived the market yesterday,
October 18, to redeem an earlier promise of financial assistance.
Upon hearing of the fire incident, Cole had visited the burnt market where he promised to assist them to get back to business.
There
was jubilation when Cole presented a donation of fifteen million naira
to the traders, with a new promise to build a fire proof ultra modern
market when he is voted in as Governor.
The member representing
Port Constituency 1, in the Rivers State House of Assembly and House of
Representative candidate for Port Harcourt Federal Constituency 1,
Victoria Nyeche, while addressing the crowd, noted that Cole came back
to redeem his promise because he is a man with integrity .
“Arc. Tonye Cole is a man who makes a promise and fulfills the promise,” she said.
On
his part, the Director-General of Tonye Cole Campaign Organization,
Chidi Lloyd, assured the traders that Cole is a harbinger of good
things to come to the state from May 29, 2019, stressing that the State
has gone comatose in the last three and half years arising from
sustained systemic maladministration and therefore needs a man whose
words are his bond to transform the fortunes of the state.
