Amaechi should stop all these rubbish. His desperation is getting out of hand. Well am going to PH tomorrow, we will get to the root of all these madness. If he wants to decamp, he should do so without a fight. As for any SE governor on the same train with Amaechi, he is finished politically.

There is every indication that he is gonna end up in jail, alot of misappropriation and misapplication of funds in Rivers state.

Let's see how it goes. At least we'll all remember today when the guns start firing. Nobody has monopoly to lawlessness.

Whats lawless in an impeachment process? As long as two third of the house decides to that, it is lawful. The lawless one here is Amaechi who disrupted a lawful process. Bloody hypocrite.

Garri the 1st: GEJ is set to destroy the nation over his 2015 agenda..

1. He has used BH to destroy and destabilize the North..

2. He has empowered and armed Niger Delta militants..

3. He tried introducing Boko Haram to the S-West, when he failed he gave OPC millions to procure arms against 2015..



Mr. GEJ, the gods are watching you.

cool

@OP, stop being mischievous. This battle is between Wike and Amaechi, ie pro-Amaechi and pro-Wike lawmakers. Yes, Wike is in the good books of the president but the president is not directly involved in todays battle. By the way, the president is in China as we speak.

That's exactly my point. We are yet to get the full story but you are here already apportioning blames. It makes you look like a sycophant who sees nothing wrong in his benefactors actions even if they are wrongful.

This is the real news.


The sitting of Nigeria’s Rivers State House of
Assembly was disrupted this morning
when hoodlums and some members attacked the
principal officers of the house, with
an assortment of weapons. The house which
adjourned sine die for some weeks now, in the wake of the political crisis between Governor Rotimi Amaechi and President Goodluck Jonathan’s pointsmen in the state, reopened this morning at about 9.45 a.m. Proceedings have barely started when some members, said to belong to the G5 minority group, arrived with some hoodlums and started beating up the majority leader of the house, Chidi Lloyd with sticks, microphone stands and any object that could serve as cudgels. The Speaker of the house, Otelemaba Amachree was similarly attacked and the mace broken.

Most people commenting here are just exhibiting their biases. We are yet to get the full picture of what is going on and people are already taking sides throwing blames and abuses.

Can a nigerian ever be shed primitive instincts of bias, tribalism, nepotism, etc when commenting on issues?

So what if he is in China? Even if he is in Jupiter or Mars, he definitely has a hand in this. he and his wife should be ready to face the music when time comes.

Retardeen was not in the country either when the NGF wahala came up. It's fast becoming a trend. Besides it doesn't matter.

I foresee anarchy in Niger delta courtesy of GEJ and his cohorts, they want to set the niger delta on fire in the name of fighting Amaechi. Since militants are now lawmakers that will impeach a governor. Let's watch out for the magic. This saga may end up bringing in the khaki boys from the way its going.

IF this is the true story, then its quite unfortunate. We must condemn barbaric acts like this no matter whose side we are on.
