AMAECHI: WIKE’S AWARD IS POISONED CHALICE, I REJECT IT
……Tell the world your $43m Ikoyi tale is a Wicked lie.

In the past couple of days, Minister of Transportation and immediate past governor of Rivers State, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi has been inundated with calls and enquiries from journalists about a purported award/honour to him from Nyesom Wike, the current governor of Rivers State.

The minister was shown a publication of the Rivers State government indicating his name as one of many others to be given awards by Nyesom Wike. But as at today, Amaechi has not received any communication from Nyesom Wike and/or Rivers State government in this respect.

Be that as it may, we want to state categorically that whatever Wike claims to be giving to Amaechi is a poisoned chalice that has been unequivocally rejected by the minister.

Firstly, the purported award itself is a contradiction of monumental proportions, a contradiction that can only come from a warped and perverted mind. From day one as governor, Wike has made it his sole, one-point agenda to attack, abuse, insult and falsely denigrate Amaechi, his immediate predecessor and erstwhile benefactor. Since he became governor, Wike spends most of his time making reckless, deeply irresponsible malicious, false allegations against Amaechi, as he attempts, albeit fruitlessly, to malign and destroy the outstandingly superb performance and legacy of Amaechi in Rivers State. So, what is the bases or criteria for Wike to give an award/honour to a man he (Wike) has rashly attacked and called all sorts of unprintable names in the past two years? For Wike to do a 360 and give an award to a predecessor, he (Wike) has consistently but misleadingly and deceitfully called Satan, Judas, non-performer, thief and only this week a sponsor of cultists, shows evidently that Wike suffers from a grave but rare form of psychosomatic malady.

Secondly, what will Amaechi tell Rivers People when he goes to collect an award from that man-child who sits in Government House that is directly or indirectly responsible for the present deplorable state of sufferings, economic and infrastructural decay, violence, crime, insecurity, kidnappings and killings in Rivers State. Amaechi will not accept any award from a petty lowlife conman, who rode to power on the blood of Rivers people.

Thirdly, the office of governor of any state is a prestigious, very dignified office and the occupant of that office who holds it in trust for his people is expected to act, talk and behave responsibly and decorously. When the governor talks, he should talk with facts and must be able to prove his claims. Most unfortunately for Rivers State, Wike possess non of these qualities. Wike is everything a governor should not be, with virtually no redeeming qualities. Amaechi will not accept any award from this kind of lying, reckless, irresponsible and brutal character that has become the laughing stock of the nation.

Finally, We will not relent to remind Wike and insist that he must go to court, like he vowed, to prove his frivolous claims that the over $43million Ikoyi money and luxury apartment (found by EFCC), belongs to Amaechi and were stolen from Rivers State by Amaechi; or be ready to face the wrath of the law at the appropriate time; the wrath of the people and ultimately the wrath of God, which no constitutional immunity can protect him from. The only other alternative is for him to publicly apologize and tell us that he wickedly and maliciously lied when he had that disgraceful, middle of the night press conference to push the false narrative that Amaechi owns the money and apartment.

Drama

Political Touts

Amaechi himself is poisonous.

naso..... amaechi is a legend, wike can give that useless award to a very useless drunkard of otuoke

Amaechi and Wike are funny too funny. Anyways Wike is working

Atleast, wike was mature enough to recognise him with an award, but the same Amechi in a very childish, premature and petty manner celebrated an anniversary of Rivers state as governor and carefully exempted Odili in everything. Even when they were showing a video documentary of the history of rivers, ot never showed Odili as governor between 1999 to 2007. When he took pictures on the podium with extra rulers of the state, he wasn't even mentioned, talk less of recognition with an award. Yet, this Odili that he so denegrate is a man that he was living in his bq, a man that took him from nobody and made him who he is today.

Someone should put an end to this political charade in Rivers state..
enough of the hate.

AMAECHI'S REJECTION OF STATE AWARD: A MORAL RELIEF... wike's commissioner for information

The Rivers State government has learnt with much relief news of the rejection of a proposed State award, by a former governor of the State, and current Minister for Transportation, Mr Rotimi Amaechi.

Given Mr Amaechi's sanctimonious statement of rejection, it is important to clarify that the Rivers State Government never set out to honour Mr Amaechi for any meritorious service to the State during his time as governor.

As part of the events of the State's Golden Jubilee celebration, the State government accepted the recommendation of
the organizing committee that a variety of awards be given to different categories of individuals who have earned a place in the history of the State.

There is a category of the awards designated for former governors of the State. And as a former governor, Mr Amaechi fell automatically in that category.

We wish to emphasize that the award was never meant as a validation of Mr Amaechi's horrendous administration.

Mr Amaechi was personally indicted for stealing billions of public funds during his time in office, by a court-approved panel of inquiry set up by the state government.

The government will soon initiate a prosecutorial process against him in multiple jurisdictions, in Nigeria and abroad. And no award would have stopped that process.

We must confess that as a government, we wrestled with the moral horror of giving any kind of award to a man whose government was no better than a criminal syndicate.

Mr Amaechi may be a scoundrel of history, but he was once a governor of the state. The proposed award was to serve as a sad acknowledgement of the especially dark place he occupies in our State's otherwise illustrious history.

His rejection of the award is therefore a huge moral relief for the administration, and the people of the state.

Dr Austin Tam-George

Matured enough to give a person that supposedly robbed River state blind an award?
Is either Wike is foolish or you're not very intelligent or most likely, both.

Who cares

Abeg give me the chalice let me hold it my name na merlin

Lol

For nominating Amaechi for award, all the corruption allegations are now null and void. What a political suicide.

Wike is a fairly powerful man but like my Japanese brothers will say "power is nothing without control"! Wike doesnt have good advisers, i give it to him, winning the governorship election in Rivers state either by hook or crook is no childs play but Wike derailed by making 'revenge' his main mission......

See what Lady wore on her wedding anniversary - See Big stuff

Two shameless people

The lizard of ubima rejects an award from d lion king of ikwerre. Guilty conscience is really a bad disease.

award as d most corrupt gov dat ever ruled rivers state?

Me ehn, I just come here to read comments and the uppercuts from the followers of Lion of Ubima to the Chicken of.... U know the rest.
