I Have No Quarrel With Jonathan - Amaechi by bcomputer101: 5:44am On Apr 26, 2013
Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State has
described as a "media creation" the purported rift
between him and President Goodluck Jonathan.
"I am not aware that Mr. President and I are
quarrelling. As far as I am concerned, we are not
quarrelling", Amaechi told reporters on Thursday in
Kano State.
The governor stated this even as he said the planned
election into the Nigerian Governors' Forum was not
a do-or-die.
Amaechi was in the ancient city on the invitation of
his Kano State counterpart, Rabiu Kwankwaso.
Amaechi, the NGF chairman said, "Governor
Kwankwaso invited me to Kano to come and inspect
some of the projects on the ground, and that is why I
am here."
On the forthcoming NGF election, Amaechi said it
was not a do-or-die thing, as he would bow out if not
given the chance to continue in that capacity.
He added, "If I am not re-elected as the Chairman of
the Governors' Forum, there is nothing to lose, I will
still remain a member of the forum, and work
towards its success."
Concerning his posters for the 2015 presidential race,
which had appeared in some cities, Amaechi said,
"My picture with that of Kano governor as well as
Jigawa governor, Sule Lamido; will I be vice-
president to both of them?"
Meanwhile, civil rights groups, Africa Network for
Environment and Economic Justice and the Ogoni
Solidarity Forum on Thursday in Abuja urged
President Goodluck Jonathan to stop muzzling the
opposition.
According to them, there is a "gradual attempt to
muzzle opposition and human right groups".
Instead, they asked the Federal Government to learn
to tolerate opposing voices since constructive
criticism remained the hallmark of democracy.
The Executive Director of ANEEJ, Rev. David Ugolor,
and the National Coordinator of OSF, Mr. Celestine
Akpobori, at a joint briefing, also pleaded with the
judiciary to redeem its image by maintaining its
independence and integrity.

Ok...No problem with him abi? Time will tell. We knew you are not as close as before, we also knew Akpabio attempted to feed some "hungry" fellows the other day... We knew about your sympathy for the oppositions...We saw your hands when you were not there on that posters.
