RIVERS STATE – THE TREASURE BASE OF THE NATION (A Visual Portrait)

“Crude Oil and Petroleum is probably the first thing that comes to mind when one thinks of Rivers State but more than anything, it is blessed by vast arable land that supports food production for her population.

As its name implies, River State as a state bordered by water bodies is a state with linkages that connect and encourage interactive webs through its waterways. With a dominant upland space; surrounded and dissected by bodies of waters, River State inadvertently becomes a melting point of varied migrations and ancient empires, interconnected by travel routes, shared history and heritage.” – Emma Okah (Excerpts from the book)
