Rivers State Governor, Chibuike
Amaechi has declared that failure
of the People’s Democratic Party
(PDP) led Federal government to
implement the United Nations
Environmental Protection Agency
(UNEP) report on Ogoniland was
part of the reasons why he left
the party.
Amaechi spoke on Sunday at the
thanksgiving celebration of
former Council Chairman of
Khana Local Government Area,
Gregory Nwidam at St. Dominic’s
Catholic Church, Bane.
Amaechi said the PDP led Federal
Government lack the political will
to implement the UNEP report to
make the environment habitable
for the people of Ogoni,
including the provision of water
and other infrastructural
development.

“After the verification and
recommendation by the Agency
to the Federal Government, they
have refused to release the sum
of One million dollars for the
clean-up and development of the
area. As I am talking to you
today, the Federal Government is
doing nothing about the UNEP
report. One million dollars is
about 160 billion naira, but the
Federal Government has been
spending billions in other places.
But, you need to ask yourselves
one question, what did Ogoni do
against the federal government
that they cannot release 160
billion naira to save your
environment.
That is the reason I left PDP for
APC, because, our interest is not
protected in PDP. So, when they
cannot give the people of Ogoni
160 billion naira, which is not
even enough for their kids to
travel around America and
London, if they cannot give to
Ogoni people, why should you
vote them?” he said.
“What you should do is to
punish them with your votes by
voting them out in 2015. When
you vote, you are not fighting
for me, you are fighting for
yourselves because, I have
served as a Speaker for 8 years
and also Governor for 8 years,
what I need from God is long life.
You need to fight for yourselves
and save Rivers State as well,”
Amaechi said.
The governor urged the people
of Khana and all Rivers people to
register and identify with the All
Progressives Congress (APC) in
order to vote out the Peoples
Democratic Party, (PDP) in the
2015 general elections.
“Let me assure you that APC will
win in 2015 in Rivers State. You
owe me a duty to get registered
with APC. Go and register during
the voters’ registration and get
your voters card. I want to thank
the people of Bane community
and Khana people for their
support, especially the celebrant,
Hon. Gregory Nwidam for his
promise that the people of Khana
LGA will ensure APC wins in
Rivers State in 2015,” Amaechi
said.

Ok... But why is he saying this now in a Church service at Ogoni? As usual seeking sympathy.

well I agrEe with you that Amaechi may be trying to whip up sympathy but again he's right. The Govt shd implement UNEP report as a matter of urgency.




Though I dnt believe that "it was the reason" he left PDP

Amaechi the mad and confused dog.

Don't mind him, that is how he said he fighting Goodluck for the oil block because of Kalabari people.

Amaechi, why this sudden change. There is more to this than one can see on the surface.

All this while you've been fighting this course without letting us know. well who knows . . .

Ameachi again He bluntly said he needs long life to enjoy his loot at the expiration of his tenure ... "if the gods wants to punish u, they make u go mad first"

Anywhere Amaech goes, he gives a new reason for leaving PDP depending on the place and those in attendance.
When he was in Kalabari, it was because of the oil wells ''stolen'' from them.

Look who's looking for sympathy at the church -- Amaechi the driver

Even if his life depends on it, Amaechi can't close his mouth for a second

ahaika23: Amaechi the mad and confused dog.

Ahama or wat are you called?..Is the mad dog not old enough to be your father?..Chai!..children of nowadays sha.

Is this the actual reason why he left PDP?
He has given us other reasons in the past,

He who the gods want to clear they first make him insane.

I wonder when he started caring for the Kalabari tribe over Soku Oil well

DebateNigeria: Is this the actual reason why he left PDP?

Yes

confused man, always drumming up public sympathy.

Likewise, we'll dumb you over your inability to implement Port Hercourt monorail.

Amaechi is a sign of confused being.

He is using people's weakness to buy their votes.

Lets wait and see.

My Brother Amechi,

how market in APC ?

Why are you still crying, when your head is off in Pdp

A shameless lier, turncoat. APC used VP slot as bait to draw you out to shame. Whatever several reasons you may give at difderent fora, we know different. Stop being clever by half.

WHAT I NEED NOW IS LONGLIFE.LONGLIFE TO BECOME apc VP.

Let me ask this. If I'm a Kalabari man, what incentive do I have to vote for Goodluck if he took away the oil wells from my community?

If I'm a Ogoni man, why should I vote for Goodluck if for the duration of his tenure he has done NOTHING to clean up my land and water after the United Nations told him to do so?

Blaming Amaechi for using Goodluck's negligence for these communities is not really the issue here.

And the award for the most confused governor of the federal republic of Nigeria goes to..
