The minister said: “Don’t take our support for President Tinubu for granted. You have to be very careful with the statements you make.
“When Mr. President comes back, when I see the Minister of Blue Economy, I will tell them to tell him: Carry your hand to Rivers State if your hand burns, don’t say na me burn am. I can challenge anybody this state is a no-go area.
“Go and ask those who have tried it before. You open your mouth to talk about Rivers state, anything you see, take it. Anything you want, take it.
I can challenge anybody that this state is a no go area. This state is a no go area whether you like it or don’t like it. So take the one you have taken. stop making unnecessary noise.”
