Proof has emerged that the Minister of Transportation and Aviation, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi lied concerning the Nigerian Maritime University.
The minister while trying to justify the Federal Government's decision to scrap the Nigerian Maritime University told the senate Committee on Marine Transport that there was no work on the Permanent site of the Maritime University in Okerenkoko, Delta state and insisted that what was on ground was “just the feasibility study”.Amaechi said; “Whoever that is holding on to the money should better return it. The Chinese company contracted, confirmed that only the feasibility study was in place.”According to photographic evidence gathered by our correspondent who visited the site of the Maritime University, contractors were seen on working on site with heavy duty equipment, while buildings were captured at various phases of construction contrary to Mr. Amaechi’s claims. According to our correspondent, the temporary site of the Maritime University in Kurutie, Warri South-West of Delta state was equipped with necessary structures and facilities and was set to admit students into the 2016 Academic year pending the completion of structures at the permanent site.
A resident of the community who spoke to our correspondent said that there was no truth to claims by Mr. Amaechi as work was ongoing, he said that the contractors were being arrested while working on the site.
Other residents groaned that the Government was sending a wrong signal to the community as that is what they got from having a son of the Niger Delta as President. They remarked that in spite of the difficult terrain of the area where it is difficult to get sand, the contractors remained on site and dismissed the Ministers comment as uncharitable and sending a wrong signal.
The ground breaking ceremony was performed by former President GOODLUCK Jonathan on the 10th of May, 2014 while the Federal Executive Council approved the decision for the school to take off in 2015.

This type of news will never hit the FP, Lalasticlala this is not good for you.

Amesshhii. You want to re-award it to your boys to use recoup campaign expenditure.

I supported this Administration since we were left with two problematic Candidate and one must be supported. It is imperative to condemn this type of embarrassing propaganda by Mr. Rotimi Amaechi and also demand for apology, Once more i enjoin Mr Lalasticlala to do the needful.

APC and lies?

Not a surprise. Children of hate!

Cc: Lalasticlala please do the needful

Nigerians are so gullible and easily fall prey to these evil politicians. You wanted change so badly yet, an uneducated rtd military general was forcefully elected at all cost when we have efficient technocrats in this nation. Propaganda and lies everywhere.

Amaechi should also provide his own proof.

If it doesn't hit front page I will stop being a Nairalander. God help my people and God help my country

Yes I remain with Nairaland just saw it on front page

Ameachi is just plain stupid. How can he suggest or think of to discontinue such laudable project that is aimed at improving the quality of manpower in Nigeria and at the same time develop the local economy of that community and the country at large.....

zombie abeg go sitdown for gutter.

I am not surprised. Even the devil is angry that APC and its members are more evil than him. I have known amaechi as a serial liar, traitor and a devil. Just because of politics and witch-hunt he cancelled a massive project that will benefit his people more. I am not angry because I was not part of those zombies that voted them in. God will surprised all of them soon as the table will always turn around and they will pay dearly.

the bible knows APC as another name for liars so the devil is their father.

the rate at which APC as a party lie they don't fear God.

If Amaechi as governor of Rivers state couldn't see or know that there were functional FG trains even right across from his abode at the government house then how will he see a thing as "tiny" as a maritime university in far away Delta state ? I don't blame him for being an idíot, I blame our Niger delta political and social leaders for taking this insult lying low. If the FG says they don't want to sponsor this project anymore, there are various ways we can use to fund it ourselves. The only thing we would have to beg the vendetta seeking sadists is for accreditation of the institution

Nigeria my country....

MARK MY WORD SOMETHING FATAL WILL SOON HIT APC WITHIN THIS FOUR YEARS AND BELIEVE ME WHEN THAT HAPPENS ALOT OF ITS MEMBERS WILL TRY TO LIV D COUNTRY COS THEIR LIES WILL HUNT THEM

...but why would he do that?

That is what they are good at, liesssssssssss

who is Amaechi? Hope is not one of the PDP looters that used Rivers state treasury to sponsor Apc Presidential election. The one that abandoned monorail project. The one that is now FG Pipkin saint. The one that refuse to appear before....that indicted him. I can not be deceived by Zomies.

When a house is built on a weak foundation, collapse is certainly sure. APC is a party whose foundation is built on deceit and lies. Check it out late last year, the deceitful minister of information when it was dawn on him that the december deadline is fast drawing closer, came up with one of his pranks that boko haram has been defeated just the moment boko hit again. Just to defend the incompetency and lack of diplomacy displayed by president in the case of Bayelsa when he refused to congratulate the returning governor with a flimsy excuses based on party differences. Now look at this comedian called Amechi coming up with another flimsy and baseless accusation just as the party has been doing since assuming power.

Uncle Amechi can say anything ooopp

God is watching and every man shall give account of their works
