The Deputy Governor stated this at a Women’s Programme put together by the Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministries in Port Harcourt on Saturday, 24th March, 2018.
Dr. Banigo said the State Chief Executive Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, as a gender friendly Governor is encouraging women to participate actively in politics, so it behoves on women to stop sitting on the fence and get involved in politics.
“Get your PVCs, participate in your communities, and join pro PDP Organizations like the Grass Development Initiative (GDI) and the Wike Solidarity Movement (WSM) to mobilize support for the Governor.” She stressed.

The Deputy Governor called on Security Agencies to carry out their constitutional responsibilities without bias to ensure that our votes count and expressed the hope that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) would conduct free, fair and credible elections in 2019.
Dr. Banigo said the theme of the women’s programme“Restoring God’s Glory” is apt because women are special, noting that it is the seed of the woman that would destroy the works of the devil.
According to her, Women must arise and let the Glory of God to be seen in their lives and in the lives of their family members.
She said the decision of the women to set up a training centre for women is very commendable and is in consonance with the policy of Governor Wike, who is committed to ensure that women are skilled, empowered and educated enough to be the best they can be.
In her remarks the State Woman Leader of the Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministries Mrs. Gloria Egbunefu said the Women of the church are grateful to the Almighty God for using Dr. Banigo to work with Governor Wike in bringing good Governance to the State.
She said in line with the Governor’s developmental strides the women are to build a well equipped training centre to train the women to acquire skills. Like sewing, baking, catering and a mini hospital to tackle medical emergencies, during women’s programmes.
