Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has declared that the  state government   is hosting national  events to prove to the  world that contrary to  sponsored  negative propaganda, the state is peaceful.

Inaugurating the  Local Organising Committee,  LOC,  for the 2016 Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, Conference  at the Government House, Port Harcourt on Wednesday, Governor Wike said  that  business  interests are flourishing  in the  state  because  of its calm atmosphere.

He said  that  the  state  will host the NBA  National Conference  in August,  the PDP National Convention in May and the Federal High Court Legal Year celebration in September.  He noted that  these events will attract thousands  of  visitors to the state.

“We are hosting high profile conferences to attract thousands of people  to the state. These people  will witness the ambience, security  and  beauty  of  Port Harcourt first hand.

“They will understand  that the stories they are told are false and sponsored negative propaganda. In the last few months, we hosted four international  football  matches with our guests enjoying  the peace and beauty  of  the state “, he stated.

The governor  charged the members  of the Local Organising Committee to ensure that  the  2016 NBA  Conference  turns out  to be the best in  the  history of the association.

He charged the members of the LOC to put in their best in the interest of the legal profession and the state.  He said as chairman of the LOC ,  he will act as a general  supervisor to monitor  the  process of  organisation.

In his remarks, the Alternate Chairman and Attorney-General of the State, Mr Emmanuel Aguma, SAN,  said that the main organising  committee  and the nine sub committees have been  programmed to  deliver  a  historic national conference.
