Ex-governors In Senate To Back Amaechi by kahal29: 4:45am On Oct 08, 2015 |
Senate President Bukola Saraki and 12 other senators may have resolved to support the confirmation of former Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi as cabinet minister, sources said yesterday. The three Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) senators representing Rivers State had raised an objection to Amaechi’s nomination and vowed to stop his confirmation. Our correspondent gathered that Saraki and former governors in the Senate have vowed to save one of their own from humiliation. Besides Saraki, others in the group are Senators Godswill Akpabio, Sam Egwu, Theodore Orji, Joshua Dariye, Danjuma Goje and Rabiu Kwankwaso. Others are Senators Jonah Jang, George Akume, Bukar Abba Ibrahim, Ahmad Sani, Aliyu Wamakko, Adamu Aliero and Isiaka Adeleke. Our correspondent further gathered that the senators, who cut across party lines, may have started reaching out to other senators to garner enough support for Amaechi. It was also revealed that while Saraki will be rallying All Progressives Congress (APC) senators, Akpabio who is the Minority Leader will be reaching out to senators of PDP extraction. An aide to one of the senators who spoke to our correspondent on condition of anonymity shortly after plenary session on Wednesday, confirmed the senators’ position. The aide said: “I can confirm to you that all the senators who were governors have decided to rally support for Amaechi to ensure his confirmation. As a matter of fact, they have picked two among themselves as contact persons. “Their position is that somebody who is qualified enough to be governor should also be good enough to be minister. The ex governors are also of the view that humiliation of one of them is humiliation of all”. http://thenationonlineng.net/ex-governors-in-senate-to-back-amaechi/ 3 Likes |

Nice development. Amaechi the slayer of the clueless man will make it. Forget all these obstacles. Wailers before ministerial list: Amaechi has been used and dumped by the Apc. He became a laughing stock. Wailers after ministerial list: This change is fake. As long as Buhari Nominated Amaechi,he isn't serious on his corruption war. These guys are a gift that keeps on giving. 56 Likes 2 Shares |

The senators have no option than to Confirm the appointment of the Lord of the Southern ring. They are only playing to the gallery so as to satisfies their gullible supporters and wailing allies. Mark my word, all the ministerial nominees will return with the unanimous approval of the Senate. 24 Likes |

Amechi is a beloved son of God...there are few people like him that have special talent like him...His case is just like that of king David in the bible...Somebody that openly fought a sitting president and won the battle...during his war with Ex president jonathan and other PDP guys at times Ii used to think within myself that this Amechi will soon end up in destruction for fighting with our jonathan but later realised that his APC won that election...Even wike said it several times during his campainging that Amechi would be bundled out of river state with hancuffs but to our surprise today Amechi made ministarial nomine list...That guy will become our minister very soon because he has God's backing.........May almighty God help me to be victorious over all my enemies like Amechi....He's a beloved 28 Likes 3 Shares |

The crowing of Amaechi and other corrupt element ministers of the federal republic of Nigeria is a confirmation that Nigeria under Buhari will continue the tradition of encouraging corruption and sheer hypocrisy. Buhari has proven to be a cancer in the anti-corruption fight and a promoter of coruption. No sane country would take Nigeria under Buhari serious considering his open support for the sustenance of corruption. It is a shame that a more corrupt government has taken over the reins of power. 20 Likes 4 Shares |
