The Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, CON, GSSRS, has signed Executive Order RVSG – 22 prohibiting the use of premises, buildings and structures in residential areas in urban and non-urban areas as campaign offices by political parties without approval. The Order also prohibits the posting of bills or posters or any other material in unauthorized places.
