“Let me assure you that the State Government will not relent to give you all the necessary support that you require to make you bring trophies at the end of this season.

“I hear you have CAF Match ahead of you. Let me say to Rivers United FC, if you win the CAF Cup, your life will change. I will not say now what I will give to you. Just win the trophy first.

“The same applies to Rivers Angels. Win the trophies, be the first to go and play tournament in Africa, then your life will also change.”

The governor also motivated the teams with financial rewards should they secure any away win.

He told them to always show that they are truly Rivers wherever they go for any competition, and have the determination to emerge as the best at all times.

“As a motivating factor, if you go and win Enyimba, and come back, we will give you N20 million. Henceforth, for the Rivers United, any match you win away, you’ll have a bonus of N10 million. The same amount applies to Rivers Angels.

“Continue to show other teams that you’re really Rivers. You don’t need to take second. You need to take first all the times.”

“I believe that this is the right time our people are using sports as catalyst for development. You have provided the state of the art luxury bus for the Rivers United FC. The coaster for the girls is not allowed. Give them luxury bus too. I will not allow that discrimination.

“The two teams, as you’re leaving, they will go with two ambulances. To the technical crews, you’re also important because you help the teams to succeed. Whatever benefits they get will have extension to you.

Governor Wike further announced donation of a coaster bus to the Supporters Club for always providing moral boost for the teams.
