Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, on Sunday, insisted that President Goodluck Jonathan forced the postponement of the general elections.

Amaechi, who was a guest on Channels Television ‘Politics Today’, alleged that Jonathan ignored the assurance of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) that it was ready for the elections.

The Director General of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign explained that INEC Chairman, Attahiru Jega, had earlier given assurance that it was more prepared for the general elections than it was before the 2011 general elections.

While expressing dissatisfaction at the postponement, Amaechi queried: “how will my party be happy with the postponement when Nigerians were ready for the elections and the President and the military will sit down and say, ‘no, you cannot have election on that day.’

“I hope that by March 28, they would have been able to decimate the Boko Haram; if they don’t, I hope they do not postpone the election again.”

“The election postponement is a wrong decision because 80 per cent of the persons at the Council of State meeting held in Abuja had asked the President not to ask for postponement.

“The INEC chairman made a comment that was interesting. He said, ‘if you say that the 2011 election was credible, Mr. President, I am telling you that I am more prepared now than I was in 2011’.

“If you look at now and when the election was postponed, you will see that nothing has changed, but the military had reported that it had taken back some communities in the volatile north-east under the control of the Boko Haram terrorists,” Amaechi said.

“Is the President saying that if he knew he would win the election on that day, would he have asked for postponement?

“If you like shift elections to May 29 or June 12, the truth is that Nigerians want change.

“Go to the street and hear; Nigerians want a change and the things that the APC provide are change so they want to vote for the APC.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was hoping to use the military to intermediate voters and rig the election.”

Even a new born knows that. He only delayed his days of sleepless nights.


Imagine if Buhari was president of Nigeria and every week he is gallivanting from NASFAT to Quareeb, from Quareeb to Ansarudeen, from there to Ahmadiyya, from there to Izala from there to the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA) and from there to the National Mosque in Abuja and from there to the Ilorin Central Mosque and from there to the Yobe Central Mosque and then from there to Lagos Central Mosque, then to the central mosques in Ibadan, Kano and Maiduguri then again he shells out billions of naira to imams, what would Nigerians say? What would Nigerians say if Buhari is the president now and he takes the jets of the presidential fleet to pack imams to Mecca? What would Nigerians say if Buhari was in the mosque and a grand imam from the north accuses southern tribes of being terrorists and Buhari is right there in the mosque and he says nothing? Hypocrisy has melted the brains of many in this country. Jonathan is a divisive leader using a very volatile means to push his sinister agenda. So answer me, what if Buhari was doing all this? And he makes sure the media is always covering every visit to the mosque? This same general was in Abuja some days ago for Friday prayers at Wuse, the imam did not even announce that Buhari was in the mosque and many were not aware he was in the same mosque with them. He had his prayers and left without any noise. Jonathan, I repeat, is a divisive figure and it is the actions of leaders like him that lead to catastrophic consequences. As for the hypocrites of this nation defending every stupid thing Oga Ade does because of tribe or religion, na you go tire for this one wey we start so.
