Finally after two terms in gvernment, the day of reckoning is finally approaching and now is the moment of truth... No problem... Another will surely complete the project and many more. Just pray your successor doesn't make a messier mess of the mess you are leaving behind... 3 Likes |

Country without vision is a dead country. That is what I see around everywhere in Nigerian development. It is easy for Nigerian leaders to steal than to complete meaningful projects. May you die in a useless way, Mr governor of River state! I wish I can get rid of all Nigerian leaders! PTUI! |

But not before I say this to you: "If you think you, your entire generation -born, unborn and never-to be born, your family and your whole village cannot achieve what Rotimi claims to or actually achieved, its okay. There will always be unambitious, good-for-nothing parasites in the world. I didn't choose your path for you, so don't try to get my sympathy". Nobody can help you now.

upko1: I had been saying it that APC must be very unintelligent for them to soil themselves by jumping into a locked embrace with this man. I did not support APC but I wondered why they could not see how they were confidently smearing themselves with s*** in broad day light. Their association with Amaechi is one thing that made me disrespect them because I said to myself, "Can't they see? Or could they really be like him?" It was always unfortunate that great leaders like Fashiola had to be grouped in the same league as Rotimi Amaechi. But when we Rivers people tried to tell them, they did not listen to us. Come to think of it, they deserve the association. They have very well earned it ~ South-south voice 2 Likes |

kel4soft: How can you convince anybody that that monorail will even go past mile one? Will they destroy the flyovers? How many more =N=150billion budgets will be needed if 150 billion was budgeted to get it to waterlines (which he has already admitted he wont be able to get to)? It is interesting that almost everyone else in the state (including market women) seemed to know he wouldn't be able to take it anywhere. He seems to be the last one knowing and acknowledging this. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Did anyone ask him the status of the general hospital that he promised to build to replace the one he demolished in town. That is one of the funny decisions of his govt. He demolished an existing well equipped hospital because the govt is in partnership with some foreigners to build a modern one, for God's sake why demolish the old one when the new one is just being conceptualised, this is almost 5 years after the demolision and the new one is ......?

aguizm: Amaechi is not making you hate APC. You already hate APC before using him as an excuse. Those roads Amaechi mentioned are Federal roads that are been unattended to. I ask again, what should Amaechi should have done he hasn't done base on the resources at hand. Almost every Governor since 2012 have been complaining about dwindling allocation and this has affected development in many states. Even some states can't pay salaries. Why should the FG be deducting their funds through subsidy scam. Rivers State under Yaradua administration was receiving 25billion naira and average of 22billion naira monthly even when the oil thefts were high. That was the reason most states Governors did well because NNPC were not short changing the states. But since GEJ came into power from 2012, the state is now receiving 12billion with the highest fee being 17billion. With Rivers State having a wage bill of 9.2 billion naira monthly (a fact the opposition has agreed) and second tenure projects scattered in every part of the state. The Governor have to work with this meagre sum of less than 3billion monthly. And you want him to do magic? Please tell FG to stop looting through NNPC. |

ChimaAdeoye: Rivers State budget is 485bn not 490bn with the state expected to get 241.243bn from the Federation Account; N92.420bn from internal sources; N33.5bn from the sales of assets; N100bn from proposed loans; N6.983bn from the World Bank and N0.660bn www.punchng.com/news/rivers-lawmakers-pass-2014-budget-in-govt-house/ As of July this year, the state has gotten just 89bn from Federation according from NOI publication. Compare the figure to 241.243bn the state was expecting and the allocation keeps going down. Offcourse the state can't achieve 100% IGR of 92.42billion annually. Only the state rec current expenditure is N237.950bn for the 2014 budget. The 100billion bond propose to compliment the budget so far only 50billion was approved by the HOA. If the State has realised less than N237.950bn of recurrent expenditures from both FAA, IGR and bonds and loans. Tell me how it will meet up its capital projects of a different figure of N247.573bn? Comparing Lagos to Rivers is like comparing Apples to oranges. Lagos hits more than 200bn annually on IGR while Rivers struggle with 70billion. The wage bill of Rivers State is 9.2billion monthly since apart from PH, the residence are civil servants. Lagos State is financing her light rail with $1bn world bank loan while Rivers monorail is from the state budget. www.thisdaylive.com/articles/lagos-how-we-spent-n160bn-world-bank-loan-on-light-rail-project/188736/ Lagos State debts though they can service it is 10 times bigger than what Rivers have. Rivers State spent 800million naira annually on the free secondary school that the Indians manage of 1000 students of Rivers indigenes and non indigenes on scholarship at Nne Kuru Model Sec Sch at Eleme. Even the FG cant dare that. The state service over 2000 overseas scholars smonthly stipends all from sane budget Even the PDP in the state can't buy into this your ignorance. EFFC should arrest Wike first since he is not under immunity then I can start taken your claim of not PDP and APC seriously. Can I see any where you quoted that EFFC should investigate the embarrassment in South Africa before you start your non partisan when actually you are. |

About the monorail, i have never been in support from day 1 when it was conceived however it should be noted that this was conceived and started from when Amaechi was in PDP. Now that amaechi is no longer in the killer party, it won't still stop me from criticising the project. Apart from this monorail waste, i am very much ok with amaechi. Considering current state income and what he is currently doing, there is no doubt that he is so far the best rivers governor in recent past. |

Hisgrace1980: This is where I expect sane Nigerians to focus on. Why the shortfalls? Not only in rivers but all states. Nigeria is still selling crude at an higher price and quantity than what the budget pegged it on and yet incomes to states seems to be dwindling and we expect the governors to perform magic. Only jonaadaft can explain where he is keeping all the money, the fool surely is keeping them for elections. |

kel4soft:[/s] [size=15pt][b]CRAP! Stop lying to us as if we can't find this information for ourselves. Rivers state 2013 budget was 485 billion with a N5.9 billion naira appropriation. Making it N490.5 Billion. So the man you quoted was correct! http://ireports-ng.com/2014/01/08/apc-pdp-in-war-of-words-over-n485-billion-rivers-budget/ http://www.ictprocurement.com/news/security/budget-2013-round-up-by-states.html Rivers state 2014 budget is N485.5 Billion: http://www.punchng.com/news/rivers-lawmakers-pass-2014-budget-in-govt-house/ It makes sense to compare Rivers state with Lagos state because their budget is about the same. Most of the money in Lagos budget is IGR while the money in Rivers budget is from 13% derivation. Irrespespective of how both states derive their money,they will spend about the same amount. Therefore we must compare what Fashola was able to achieve with N480 Billion naira ($ 3billion dollars) to what Amaechi was able to accomplish with N485 Billion naira (Above $3 Billion dollars) If you like, continue to delude yourself that Amaechi will be let go by playing this as APC vs. PDP matter. Is Amaechi the only APC governor? Go and see what Sule Lamido,Kwankwaso and Fashola are doing in their state. Are they not APC governors? Amaechi must answer for the mindless corruption and robbery of our people. I don't even want to mention the wonders Akpabio have done for Akwa Ibom because you will claim he did it because he had N2 billion naira extra above Amaechi's budget. So See for yourself what Fashola has accomplished for Lagos people with about the same amount of money Amaechi plays with! https://www.nairaland.com/1894158/lagos-state-pride-south-west [/b][/size] 4 Likes |

Excuses upon excuses. To me Amaechis statements is an admission of failure. Like the Yoruba elders say "only a lazy farmer uses his implement as an excuse." Amaechi was voted to deliver dividends of democracy to the people of his state and not otherwise. How he does it is his business. He chose a path that did not help the brief he was given by the people. In contrast, his neighbor Akpabio, as we speak initiated and completed his own major projects. I heard two days ago on TV that Akpabio just finished a new International Stadium and wants Nigeria's next match played there. Meanwhile, Ameachi and Akpabio both had 8years to finish their projects.Since last year Akpabio has been commissioning one project or another while Amaechi is busy giving excuses. Amaechi had 8years to finish the monorail project but couldn't deliver. In management nobody cares how you do the job, what matters is that you get the job done. Ameachi has failed to get the job done! The only award that Amaechi merits is the most talkative governor in Nigeria. Indeed, empty drums make the loudest noise. 8 Likes 1 Share |

cjrane: You are also saying crap instead of countering my argurement you have resulted in opening up another topic of discussion. Does budget means the availability of funds. Lagos State can only meet up because of the her internal generated revenue that is thrice more than Rivers State. Rivers State 12billion it currently receives also have 13% derivation that is why it receives more FAAC than Lagos. You mentioned Lagos Light rail and I gave you a link where Lagos borrowed $1billion to finance the project while Rivers State is funding from her budget and you have ignored that. I also mentioned the debts Lagos have $1billion naira debt while Rivers is $45million naira and you have ignore that instead to keep comparing apples to oranges. Those links you provided on the State budget, why not use same measure to find out how much the FAAC actually releases to the states. Most Lagos State projects are funded through external loans and that is why they are almost $1billion in debt. If you are honest let me have your take on this: EFFC should arrest Wike first since he is not under immunity then I can start taken your claim of not PDP and APC seriously. Can I see any where you quoted that EFFC should investigate the embarrassment in South Africa before you start your non partisan when actually you are. On Akpabio achievements, I am not going to join issues with you to talk about Akpabio vs Amaechi. You are just a trouble maker that is looking for talk. Every State have their different peculiarities and if you feel Amaechi has done nothing then fine and I am sure that is your own cup of tea cos I don't think every Rivers man feels the same way. If you think Amaechi didnt built roads and 25 bridges with 4 completed flyovers, and two going on at Greater Port Harcourt, Schools (model primary and secondary), fund scholarships both local and abroad up till this moment, built hospitals (120 primary and 4 Specialist Hospital completed with a tertiary one on going) and runs free medical services in those specialist hospitals , built stadiums (Olympic size and mini ones), built agricultural plants, Songhai farms, fish farms and more), built power plants and 28 state sub stations and still pays the highest salary in Nigeria. Then you are deluding yourself. I am not the one ranking Amaechi with Kwankwasor and Fashola and the rest of APC Governors. He deserves to be in their mix. He can't lick your President's ass so to show his from south south. The Governor is only saying what other Governors have been saying that the Federal Govt is short changing them and he can't perform miracles and even your so called Akpabio, I think he has transform the whole Akwa Ibom was it not recently his state cry out they are broke because short falls in FAAC and they may not be able to complete their projects http://sunnewsonline.com/new/?p=81886 |

kel4soft: Shameless bunch of excuses again! Without talking about Lagos or Akwa Ibom which are the only states with Rivers that have an annual budget of more than N450 billion naira. Why have even poorer states as Delta,Kano, Ogun,Ondo or Kaduna achieved much more than Amaechi in spite of have double or triple more funds? You Amaechi thugs will not save him from answering for his mindless looting on the day of reckoning. I shall bring up this thread again to remind you that Amaechi must go to jail for his robbery of Rivers people and looting of the state treasury. |

Please go and look for what is troubling you and leave Governor Amaechi alone. When you say Delta and Kaduna than Amaechi then I give up on you. Meanwhile try and come back with a better statement |

What is going on in Nigeria? Why is it that our leaders always fail to provide good infrastructure? If it is a mediocre project he will quickly complete it and in a few month it will collapse on itself. Shame on the Governor of Port Harcourt for not taking this monorial completion serious. Please, don't vote this kind of person into office again. I hate Nigerian leaders with passion for thier allergy to modern development. This is supposed to be a landmark project for Rivers. 1 Like |
