Mr. Globe:

I laugh at your nativity. You probably are not conversant with the reviewed constitution. All it will take is for pdp to write inec declaring their seats vacant and conducting a fresh election

Rhino.5dm:
People fighting on pages of nairaland? Okay, We in Rivers State don't even know who is Felix O. He can even suspend Obama from his hideouts in Abuja, who cares? As far as we know, he is an interloper and no one recognizes him. As of today, all PDP stalwarts are fully behind Ameachi and G.U Ake. Just tune in to any local radio or t.v. and see how people are ready to die protecting Ameachi.

The Obio/Okpor chairman is suspended indefinitely. The fools thinking Rivers State is Bayelsa should be shot at and survivors of the first shooting should be shot again. Ameachi is firmly in control of Rivers State. Most non indigenes are the ones crying more than the bereaved while Rivers People are solidly behind Ameachi.

figment232: The RVHA members were already fighting the new exco,refusing to obey their order that Obio Npkor lg chairman be reinstated.So what did u expect the exco to do? sit down and fold their hands? No! someone had to be reprimanded ,they have to stamp their authority My friend!

wirinet:

What i expected the so called new executive to do was to go to court or the chairman involved should go to court. The exco have no power whatsoever to ORDER the legislature. And according to the nigerian constitution, the local government is bound by laws made by the state houses of assemblies and their funding is under a joint account controlled by the governor. The party EXCO has no role as far as local governments are concerned.

For you not to know Felix O, then ur not a rivers indigene. Ameachi is an Emperior n majority of rivers ppl are tired of him. He has cause a lot of distruction and pain to rivers ppl by destroying their properties Just because they oppose him or refuse to support him. Its ppl like you who sell false information on the internet. Ameachi's ship is drowning in rivers state and its very clear. Wake up n re-align or drown with him in his sinking ship

Rhino.5dm:


I'm tempted to reply you but I won't. Why don't you give us a verifiable name/s of any property demolished based on politics and not the collective good of Rivers State residents. Don't make me wait to long.

Though, I don't much like the pace at which Ameachi is developing Rivers, putting side by side the huge monthly allocations coming to the state but Ameachi is million light years ahead of Jonathan in everything. The state is taking shape in a peaceful environment. We are now clubbing 24/7 and don't have to raise our hands up while walking. Kidnapping is minimal, arm robbery is low.

wirinet:

Which constitution are you talking about, i am sure it is not the Nigerian constitution, where elected officers including lawmakers have defected in the past without losing their seat.

So you are saying the new constitution says a party chairman can just declare a seat vacant and voila, an elected officer loses his seat. no need for recall.

superbloke:
I've got to say, this is the dumbest thing i've read on nairaland. No offence

Omo_Tier1: Stupidity! When did the constitution empower a party state chairman to sack serving House of Assembly members

nuclearboy:

Worst scenario EVER!

What stops Amaechi from then "allowing" APC win all seats and control Rivers?

figment232: But it is illegal and unconstitutional for Amaechi to remove a duly elected Local gvt chairman by FIAT

Olaolufred:

IF IT IS DONE THROUGH THE STATE ASSEMBLY, THEN IT WILL STAND EVEN THOUGH IT IS WRONG.
THE ONLY PEOPLE JONATHAN CAN USE AGAINST AMAECHI IS STATE ASSEMBLY.
IF NOT, HE WOULD HAVE ONLY SCATTER THE DESTINY OF PDP IN RIVERS STATE.
THEN OGUN STATE SCENARIO WILL PLAY AGAIN.
SO FAR, RIVERS PDP MAY NEVER SUPPORT JONA 100% AGAIN.
THEN THE CHARADE OF 101% VOTE IN 2011 WILL NO LONGER PLAY IN RIVERS.

figment232: But it is illegal and unconstitutional for Amaechi to remove a duly elected Local gvt chairman by FIAT

kross_01: thinking back i could remember the supreme court's judgement that brought amaechi unto power, which ordered his immediate swearing in as the governor of the state, basing their ruling on the fact that the constitution only recognises political parties in elections and not the candidates paraded by the parties. If going by that judgement & looking at wat is presently unfolding, if amaechi leaves pdp or gets expelled, wont the seat be declared vacant since the supreme courts interpretation means the seat was voted to pdp & not amaechi?

And who told u he was removed by fiat. Please kindly shut up if u aren't on ground.

Omo_Tier1:
Go ask Obasanjo, He will be the first to tell you that any state governor in Nigeria that can survive without Federal allocation, that state will send the presidency into a spiral down fall.

Amaech if He decide to use state machineries on the phantom PDP chairman, in less than 6 months, the chairman will be history. But as a learned lawyer, Amaechi has kept His cool. Let GEJ the drunkard continue to play His dirty politics, very little mercy will be shown to Him when the North will begin their fire works against Him come 2014.

As a South-Southern, I strongly hold the view that any credible individual from that region reserve the right to contest the Presidency. And indeed same goes for anyone from any part of Nigeria. GEJ is too intellectually deficient to be a local councilor and it is as though judgment has been visited upon Nigeria with His ascendant to the Presidency.

Mr. Globe:

I guess Amaechi can influence Inec more than FG? you jokers amaze me.

nuclearboy:

No need for insults, Dude!

Amaechi is in charge there and just as GEJ cannot influence Lagos politics as much as Tinubu or Fashola can, so he cannot in Rivers!

I have NO interest anyway in their local politics in Rivers or PDP brouhahas. What simply amazes me is how GEJ is "arguing" with Amaechi publicly thus making them both to look like mates.

I expected more from a C-in-C than petty vindictive squabbling if indeed he considers Amaechi beneath him!

Rhino.5dm:


That guy is annoyingly too slow. Pay no attention to the squirrel

Mr. Globe:

This is why I said most of you on nairaland are empty heads better fit to sell only Amala. You didn't know the constitution has been reviewed and updated especially the electoral reform. Go find out what happened to Senator Boroface from ondo state when he tried to cross carpet from LP to ACN

chukel: I am no supporter of amaechi or jonathan. It baffles me hw pple for once in their life refuse to see things objectively. My question still remains- pls can these GEJ supporters just list out amaechi's sins. Is jonathan God? Is he infallible? So he can't be criticised? Dat is the problem with nigerians. One good thing is dat everyone gets paid in his coin. Amaechi is on d receiving side today. Yesterday, he was d one doling out the treatment. Tomorrow will be jonathan's turn. Again these chaps ranting for jonathan here think they can twist the constitution and use it anyhw dy want. Nigeria has passed dat level. Jonathan ignorantly is destroying his 2nd term bid. For those of u hard die supporters of jonathan, if u really luv him, u wud advise him to try and deliver the dividends of democracy nd stem down corruption. Dat way, oppostion from the north and amaechi will just die a natural death

kasiem: oh, u were surprised to see jonaactive not Jonathan as u people take him? But, why are u guys so concerned about jona loosing rivers support with d way his handling amaechi, I thought u guys are praying that he loses support by all means, and now the null prayer is coming to manifestation u guys are still panting? Is it not getting contradictory here?
