D Rivers State Governor, Mr. Rotimi
Amaechi, has said dat contrary to
President Goodluck Jonathan’s claim,
d President is not interested in a
free and fair election. Amaechi, who was reacting to
soldiers’ occupation of d Adokiye
Amiesimaka Stadium ahead of d
Jonathan’s political campaign in the
state on Wednesday, said d action
of d President was an indication dat he (Jonathan) was opposed to
democratic norms. D governor, who spoke in
Government House in Port Harcourt
on Sunday, explained dat it was
wrong for President Jonathan to order
soldiers to take over d state-owned
stadium, even when approval was not given by d state government. He argued dat a President should
have respected the position of d
state government in an ideal
federation, particularly after telling
d Peoples Democratic Party to use
d Liberation Stadium. Amaechi said, “Why is d President
insisting on using d Adokiye
Amiesamaka Stadium after we have
told the PDP that work is currently
go going on there.
Imagine That.
