EASTSIDAZ: Amaechi is headed for disaster. He is most likely to end up like Ibori. There are huge financial case that are being piled up against him. Nobody fights with presidency and goes free, unruined and undestroyed.

You guys should stop repeating this garbage that only disgraces Nigeria and present Nigerians as aberrant creatures who are fearful of their leaders and believe the humiliation and bullying they receive from these people is entirely normal and in order.

What planet do you live on not to have noticed the end for Mubarak, Ghaddafi et al? Do you assume your thinking and orientation is normal? All your talk reveal is that you have no appreciation of what genuine democracy looks like beyond what your nation teaches you it is.

You are free to talk as if you are happy to personally give up your behind for 'battering' by leaders who are essentially your servants and should be accountable to you. Yet you should appreciate you only disgrace other intelligent and balanced Nigerians who are politically sophisticated and developed enough to understand that politicians are voted in to deliver for the electorate and not to behave like omnipotent and unaccountable demigods we must all worship.

The governors forum may be unconstitutional but they are so strong that they can make anything sail through in Nigeria, infact they control the national assembly.

In a nutshell the governors forum is the strongest body in Nigeria.

ameachi will behave himself as from now on.and he knows what mr president is capable of doing

Who are these people? GEJ just got a political knock-down, you are yapping about what he can do. Power resides with the people of Nigeria not one man.

The most you lot can do is try to buy votes and rig. Well, I got news for you- Godwilling, it won't work.

Anybody that wants to remain politically relevant post-2015 knows that GEJ is not the way.

They are allied at the House of Representatives level. Senators are just marking time, I expect a lot of them to lose elections in 2015. A new breed of smarter and more dynamic leaders are emerging.

The logic is that to get elected you must first pass the primary election huddle which in all state are conducted by delegate pocketed by the governors as such, the national assembly members are always loyal to their governors more than the president in order to secure their interest.

And if all governor want an idea to scale through they meet at the level of the NGF and instruct their various NASS members to obey any rebel will hardly get their ticket back to the house. So that makes the NGF very strong .

Sunny_bobo: Thumbs up to GEJ. This result once again shows that GEJ is the most democratic president we've had since Lord Lugard.

God bless GEJ!
Democratic my foot. This is a blow to him and those PDP bigot who wants Ameachi down fall.
Just read the writing on the wall;2015 PDP will not be on the driving seat.
Re: Amaechi Re-elected As Chairman Of Nigeria Governors Forum by PointB: 4:32pm On May 26, 2013
Let's even assume that end game of these jostling is to control delegates for the 2015 primary by controlling the NGF. On the basis of Amechi's (supposed) victory how many PDP delegate can he control/influence looking the numbers and quality of people that voted for him? Is he banking on the opposition governors to deliver delegates for him in PDP convention?

This victory without home support is very phyrric at best. It does him more harm than good. I doubt if it will even serve him should he (as expected) decamps to the unregistered APC where tinubu and buhari hold sway.

What, again, I ask does it profit Ameachi to win the NGF election but lose party support? Something is clearly missing here.

Uclloyd28: All you dancing limpopo to Amaechi will sure frown in no time. GEJ will def win 2015. His no fool, his grown over the years to understand how Nigerian Politics works. You underrate and see him as a weak one, buh trust me, his only watching, observing and plotting. Since you want a man who won the only free and fair election in Nigeria leave Aso Rock cuz some few power drunk chaps is sponsoring boko haram to shake his tenure? Nigerians, wah exactly do u want sef!
