The Rivers State governor and Chairman of Buhari
Campaign Organization, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi today
said President Jonathan is not his brother and
asked the people of the South South to also desist
from deceiving themselves that because Jonathan
is from the zone, he is their brother.
Amaechi was speaking today in Calabar while
addressing supporters of the opposition All
Progressives Congress, APC who gathered to
welcome the Presidential Candidate of the party,
General Muhammadu Buhari to the Cross River State
capital.
In an address that was intermittently interjected
with responses from the crowd, Amaechi asked the
audience: “Our President is from this our zone
right? (A loud YES from the crowd).
“They say he is not developing Rivers state because
he is quarreling with the governor of Rivers state
right? (Another loud YES from the crowd).
“Is he quarreling with your governor? (A loud NO
from the crowd)
“So why don’t you have development? It means
your governor must be a bad man, he is not
quarreling with the President so that he can give
you road!
“Is he quarreling with the governor of Akwa Ibom?
(Another loud NO from the crowd)
“Because I saw the Akwa Ibom state governor on
television when they were inaugurating their
Presidential campaign committee, it means he is not
quarreling with the President so what about the
road from Uyo to Cross River?
“What is the problem?
“The governor of Abia is from PDP right? (The
crowd thundered another YES).
“Is he quarreling with the President? (The crowd
shouted NO)
“Then what of the road from Uyo to Aba?
“How many of you have helicopter?
“The President does and he travels in it. I don’t
have, I drive. I am trying to prove that the fact that
he is from South-South does not mean he should
go for us. The first term of his Presidency was
because he is our brother, this second time is merit
and achievement, you agree? (The crowd shouted
YES).
“This second time is achievement and he has not
achieved, if he has achieved he should do the road
from Calabar to Uyo, and from Calabar to Ogoja,
Calabar to Bakassi; do you have road? (The crowd
shouted NO).
“Let him tell us why we should vote for him when
there is a Buhari who says vote for me and I will
reconstruct those roads.
“You can’t tell me you are my brother when you are
not. My name is Rotimi Amaechi and my brother is
that person from the same parent with me; you
agree? (The crowd shouted YES).
“But let us allow the President and come to the
issue of what are we going to do?
“If you vote for an APC governor we shall revive
your oil palm company that will provide for you
5000 workers. APC has promised that in the next 4
years minimal you will have 3 million new jobs and
you need to know that business can only thrive if
we fix our roads. I can assure you that our
incoming President will fix our roads, he will fight
corruption and the money gotten from fighting of
corruption as he has promised will be used to
develop our rural areas and therefore I enjoin all
from Cross River not to listen to that story that he is
our brother, our brother who has refused to give
us money or do things from us or send us to
school, he is not our brother! Is he our brother?
(The crowd thundered a loud NO).
“My brother is the man who make good things
happen to me.”

are u sure?

I might not agree with with all that has been said but facts remain sacrosanct.
Jonathan is in good terms with Akwa Ibom and Abia state gov but Uyo to Aba road that should normally be 45mins take more than 2hrs cos of the bad road...The uyo to calabar road is another sad story..atleast I know these places.
