Since the commencement of the ministerial screening of two batches of ministerial nominees sent by President Muhammadu Buhari, the Nigerian Senate has twice boycotted the screening of a former governor of Rivers state, Rotimi Amaechi.

Amaechi, who was the campaign director of the ruling party, the All Progressive Congress (APC) during the March 28 presidential elections, might have been boycotted based on various reasons.

However, here are 4 major reasons why he may not be screened below:

1. No support from Rivers state senators
2. Petitions levelled against Amaechi
3. Vendetta with the former first lady, Patience Dame Jonathan
4. Declining popularity

Bear in mind, since the screening exercise, the former governor had written three letters to the senate pleading innocence of the allegations against him.

Ameachi is going nowhere #nodumping

amaechi is a thief

I am proudly omo odua from osun but I am presently living in the north, An average Igbo being is arrogant, full of empty pride and ego but as a psychologist I understand and live with them but respond with fire when they cross my red line. to be honest the eze ndi-igbo messed up in akure incidence instead of him to respect the oba and lay low for a while and pull strings while at it, he decided to turn the deji of akure's levity to stupidity and the youths decided to protect their culture/heritage their tradition but instead of e-igbo warriors to correct their brothers they seem to have deliberately, blindly toed the eze's path. The fact that you spit on a Yoruba man 7 times and he did not react does not mean he is weak, we are peace loving people but I can promise you one thing fear is not in our dictionary but my Igbo brothers will see every calm reaction as trait of weakness that's a wrong notion. secondly the Igbo community pounced so hard on oba akiolu during the last election I keenly followed and even apologised on behalf of the oba, its not cause we are weak it cause we are peaceful in nature need I remind you no Yoruba man living and working in Onitsha will insult the obi of Onitsha and go scot free but you Igbos have such leverage why try to use is against us in Yoruba land?? now the akure youths having observed you people are rude kids that needs to be flogged to their right senses you Igbos now play victims, please to avoid another flogging... respect the Yoruba culture, obas and laws then you will have nothing to worry about, cause now the igbos are painting a bad picture of them on Yoruba minds. don't let other Yoruba's react ohh. just an advice. God bless Nigeria.
