Once Amaechi leaves PDP in Rivers, his political career will simply die a natural death. You are drunk to think that Rivers people will support Amaechi over Jonathan. We are not interested in a second fiddle VP position and we have a way of dealing with traitors. You know absolutely noting about ND. Stick to your local government area my friend

Thank you mon ami!
Its good you know your onions. They think the ND people are docile or f0olish like them.
How can a governor of a state i.e, 1/36 be fighting te governor of governors, on the person of the President of the FR, just because he wants to become a second fiddle VP, which is still very very uncertain for him (Amaechi) & you are there supporting him. Have you ever heard of such in the USA, where we copied our malfunctional democracy from?
Every man to his own, please, face your LG and leave Rivers politics to Rivers people. bikonu!

Don't mind them, the live in north and west and dictate how ss would vote. Amaechi won't get any vote from any ss state. They should all watch out how it plays.

Akainzo:

In essence, you are saying ND people are driven by sentiments rather than a capacity to evaluate needs, desires and make a choice on who can deliver to them. That they'd rather be loyal to a nincompoop than select better candidates!

Who is a nincompoop here?
The only nincompoop I can decipher right now is You. Who seems to be taking drugs and consulting Specialists and Consultants for another man's headache.
In case you didn't get it, let me re-iterate what he told you earlier. Face your LG and leave Rivers peeps to solve their own probs. Is it still not clear enough for you?

You've made it clear, you lack the capacity for logical, transparent and edifying thought process as you are still basic in your needs and only have primal instincts of sentimental reasoning. When you learn to rise above religion, LGA, tribe and blind belief, progress will surely come.

24 security men for a speaker, that means the gov will 100 security men. haba

you are the real dreamer, rivers people are seeing all what's going on in their state! They see a president bullying the best governour rivers state has had sinc spiff. For the first time in history, a bomb exploded in the state.PDP is the state is essentialyy crumbling. And all these problems to them is caused by the same man whom they gave the most votes in 2011, is that their reward? Ha..ha..ha! 2015 will tell.

rivers people will support jonathan against ameachi? If you're smart enough you'll notice the growing anti jonathan feeling in the state. A state that gave him the most votes in the last election, but since then he has never visited the state, rather he is supporting his home state bayelsa in claiming oil wells in soku, what has jonathan done for rivers? How many federal government projects is going on? Rather he is bullying a man who to riverines is the best governour since spiff...upon odili leaving office, rivers state was a hotbed for cultism but ameachi has brought and maintained peace, rivers state has'nt withnessed voilence up until now that all this political thuggery started. You think people are blind to all this? And still support a man sitting in abuja bring hardship to them? I'm amused!

Last week, thousands of women matched on port harcourt wearing black warning abuja to hands off their state. Youths are planning theirs...jonathan bows to odili who built the airport bridge that collapsed months ago and is now bullying the man who has rebuilt the bridge better in a matter of months. Rivers people are watching, they are not stupid.

Some peeps here think only ijaws occupy Rivers state. There are the Ikweres, the Ogonis, the ekpeyes, A smart politician like Amaechi can effectively neutralize Jonathan.If Amaechi goes to APC and remember Oshiomwhole is also in APC, then Jonathans base in SS in seriously under threat! By the time Rochas mobilizes from the East, the battle is already won. No wonder Jonathan is Jittery.

sorry,GEJ is unopposed in the SS.
Even oshiomole a member of APC is always trying to be seen with GEJ,and always wants to be in good terms with GEJ.
Anyway SS governor that thinks otherwise is committing political suicide.

Hadeyeancah: 24 security personnel
(15 anti-terrorism policemen and
nine mobile policemen),
ONLY FOR ONE PERSON.....

multiply by 36 states. Add security details of 109 senators and 360 house of rep members, 36 governors, 40+ ministers, special advisers, ect. Which one come remain to police the rest of us? Smh!

imagine a speaker having 24security personnel attached to only him only. what a wicked world. only 9 has been removed from him, my fellow NL we need a revolution in Nigeria.

Cant we focus on the issue at hand rather than waste time talking bout Amechi n GEJ

tell that to the people of rivers state where jonathan has'nt set foot since 2011,and his wife who is a daughter of the state whoes motorcade was stoned on her last visit. Also ameachi who choose, since all these rubbish started and has'nt attended council of state meeting or even south-south governours meeting but is still popular.

Toktee: It was under jonathan that pdp loose nasarawa state and the entire west,who iz jonathan in nigerian politics,u think like some of these boys that just failed jamb

Political neophyte like you should concentrate more on reading posts than commenting on politics board.

On what ground will President Gej lose Rivers State in 2015, hypothetically speaking if you are to run in 2015 presidential election against President Jonathan, how will you convince Rivers people to vote for you and not President Gej.

Please if you can't provide reasonable response don't quote my post.

you are joking,right?
You don't know anything about the SS.
When it comes to presidential issues which concerns the interests of the SS especially against northern interests like APC the SS is indivisible.
The SS is already anti-north as it is,and they will deal with any indigene of the SS used by the north to cause confusion.
Amaechi is just trying to have his last hurrah before entering political irrelevancy.

Akainzo: The CP invites the Speaker for alleging threat of assassination because the statement has security implications.

The IG says Asari has no case to answer for threatening bloodshed and disintegration of Nigeria.

Are the two reading from the same law and constitution?

Buhari threatened bloodshed and carried out his threat and nobody is saying a word.
This emboldened him to make another threat and some people in all their analytic wisdom would not include it in their analysis.

what kind of slowpoke is this?so a person no loner has the right to aspire?when bill clinton contested against george bush .snr,what was he?he had just won a 4th term as governor of arkansas.infact he didnt finish his term before moving to the white house.what was barack obama before he contested elections?a first term senator.what was george bush jnr?a governor.even at the last Us elections,governor perry pf texas contested the republican primaries till he withdrew and returned to governing the state.how can we claim to practise a democracy if people cannot aspire to higher office without fear of intimidation?

this is a no brainer! Ok! Why did rivers people support yar adua over odili for the presidential candidacy of PDP in 2007? Was'nt odili a southener? Don't drown in political corectness.

utumunta: I hope my limited knowledge of the english language did not stop me from comprehending the part where the CP said 24 security personnel are attached to the speaker?
Nigerian politicians are incurable megalomaniacs whose pre-occupations are to revel in aggrandizement and strut around exhuding pussilanimous pomposity. Is this service to fatherland or self?
What a people! What a democracy! Black boots and green berets are not far from us, if we keep practising this our brand of democracy.

Here we are. But they are saying boko haram is nigeria's only problem!

leave this bunch of buffons!! I don't belive ameachi really wants to be vice president but even if he wants to, can't jonathan and his vice debate ameachi or whoever in a primary and earn their right to be flagbearers? Rather he is using his office to crack down on opposition and some idiotic nigerians are cheering him on, tomorrow they will shout about corruption and lack of democracy in nigeria!!

RICHIE BOI: The police chief denied withdrawing the security aides of the Speaker, pointing out that out of the 24 security personnel (15 anti-terrorism policemen and nine mobile policemen), only nine mobile policemen were withdrawn.

http://leadership.ng/news/180513/cp-orders-arrest-rivers-speaker

Interesting, the speaker said he has 4 aides now the its 24 personal

[quote author=~Bluetooth]

Who's the CP that he thinks he can't be challenged ? This is an abuse of office by ordering the arrest of the speaker least he would have done was to sue the speaker for defamation in the court of law but since the brain of an average policeman lies in the barrel of a gun,they trip over issues where they ought to take right decisions.

A quick look at the seditious claim by the the presidency against Gbenga Aruleba during the tokunbo plane saga,the guy floored the presidency in the court because the presidency didn't show transparency in the purchase of the aircraft.How will peace be achieved in Rivers state if the CP and the state government are at loggerhead with each other ?
Please be mindful of what you post online! Who told you that a speaker has immunity over prosecution or immunity from arrest/detention? Even a sitting gov could be interrogated and investigated if the need arises.

lain: jesus christ... 24 security personnel for only one speaker. Nigeria is finished. Out of 24 ONLY 9 was withdrawn, that means he still has 15. Is rivers state afghanistan. That means goodluck would have more than 100 security personnel. Smh. Nigeria is finished

Your observations are spot on. May be most of the commentators see nothing wrong for a legislator to have 24 security details attached to him and they are blaming the CP for withdrawing 9 of d personnel. This is sheer waste of public funds and it undepines the ineptitude of our elected leaders in managing our resources! It is only a revolution that will change our destiny and the attitude of our countrymen!!!

15 ANTI TErrorism Police men for one man.

Are these guys crazy ?

When GEJ was VP the Northern capals stopped him from seeing his boss,they rendered him useless as a VP;one million Amaechis as VP will not changed the position of these cabals.

The same last week you quoted women came out in their thousand to insist that CP should be retained. Try to balance issues if you are really in Rivers State. This is politics at play here. Pro-Amaechi group hired some market women for rally and the Wike group countered that by hiring the same market women under different women mobilizers. This women are tools used for selfish purpose as they are paid a paltry two to four thousand naira for this campaigns.
You claimed youths are planning theirs... my question how many unemployed youth would willingly go out for such rubbish. I know a few guys who are pro-Amaechi been compelled to mobilize youths after receiving some money for it. So don't be surprise to see the so-called youths and counter youths. Newtons third law of motion readily comes to mind. In the long run the ordinary Rivers people suffers all this as this politicians may settle in the future.

As you people are desperately telling us that one of your vote can not go out to any one else apart from Jonathan, if such notion is practiced elsewhere in the country how will you be able to win 2015? Most of you are really doing disservice to your selves and Jonathan.

Amaechi is only popular in eyes of haters of our beloved president. If you live in rivers, you and I know that amaechi is never popular. Let the truth be told, amaechi is nobody in the politics of ss. He is not popular and love by rivers people. Every one in the ss today see amaechi as traitor. For those who are supporting him on nairaland, better know that this betrayer is already on his kneel begging the president for the forgiveness of his sins. Thank God gej has already know the nature of this man. In 2011 before the election, this how he almost betrayed the president by turning against him in favor of atiku, and that sin almost cause him second term, but thank God he was forgiven by the president after much high power begging. But this time, there will be no second chance. Ibori case will be like child compare to how this traitor will be treated

Have you got any fact to support this your claims as the reason for this fight? By the way, both men careers is politics and its not interwoven with each other. Amaechi don't owe Jonathan the burial of his ambition in order to fertilize Jonathans own career. Both men owe nothing to each other in terms of loyalty. Amaechi is not Jonathan's subordinate neither is Jonathan, Amaechi's boss.
