'Rivers State Government does not have anything against hoteliers in the state, but decided to shutdown their activities because some cases of COVID-19 were recorded in hotels'.

Rivers Governor Nyesom Wike on Tuesday said he was not a dictator, insisting the State Security Council took all decisions in the prosecution of the COVID-19 pandemic in the State.A statement by the Commissioner for information and Communications, Paulinus Nsirim on Tuesday, said Wike spoke when the Executive of the Nigeria Hotel Association, Rivers State Chapter paid him a courtesy visit at Government House, Port Harcourt.

“You know people applaud government decisions when it suits them but when it does not favour them they say it is politically motivated. He said adequate information would have helped the State Ministry of Health and other relevant agencies to carry out proper contact tracing. He said: “I can’t believe that I will be sitting here as a Governor and take a painful decision that will make churches and mosques not to hold full religious activities”
