Last week Friday as we rushed to work on our way in the car only to hear that dia is centenary celebration . Schedule on Friday 15 nov and Monday 18 nov , is good and welcomed but is became senseless wen if was further extended to 22nd of nov , without the notice of public and civil servant , which show the thirsty nature of our leaders on power tussle . 19 nov happen the day the court decides to hear the obio /akpor care taker case.
Of what importance is the centenary to our basic education , where almost 2 weeks is cut shot from pupil, it show d failure and impunity of power holders , before a governor should approve a holiday it should be approve even those on d approving are unaware of d hols, well the gov is busy going about other working gov so why won't he be so docile and insensitive to the plight of our secondary and primary schools, rivers state god please help us...

My brother, God will help rivers state. That's how best they understand "political games'.
Funny when it is taken out on them they cry 'foul'.

rivers don suffa. anytym him go smo-ke can.abis fin.ish him go jst get.up do 1 tyn

I had wanted to ignore this post, but on a second thought I said no. I know how disappointing it is for a Civil Servant to pay his fare to work only to be told there is no work (I.e Today, Monday). That said, Our President Postpone his budget presentation indefinitely and this is happening for the first time since our return to democracy.
Your premise to judge Gov. Amaechi a confused one is daft and your heading is misleading.

Your Obio/Akpor citing was also wrong cos after this friday, the court will still resume. On the Pupils been affected by the holidays, I think the first question you should ask is. Who are the people that are to participate in the Cetenary? If Amaechi is a confused Governor for hosting and given 7days public holiday for his Civil Servants, then former Governor of Cross Rivers State is the bigger one for given 30days when Calabar celebrated their moment. We don't even know how many days GEJ will give next year when Nigeria celebrate her 100years. Going by the big investment of 64bn city gate of Abuja and Centenary village. Expect more Holidays next year.
