WHERE ARE THE AMAECHI FRIENDS, LOYALISTS
AND SUPPORTERS? BETRAYAL OF TRUST...
When the chips are down then you’ll realise
whom your TRUE friends and supporters
really are, this is just the case with my
Governor (Gov.CRA) of RIVERS STATE. When I
took on him with my innocuous comments
amidst love, his goons, the busybodies and
sycophants misconstrued me. They called me
all sorts of names and painted me in bad light
before their “Oga at the top”, now where are
they in this heat? Are they suffering his fate
or, he’s carrying the cross all by himself?
Politicians should think…
First, it is good to fight. Even the Holy BOOK
(the BIBLE) agreed to believers being “angry”
if they’re badly bruised but the CONDITIONAL
clause is; “Do not let the sun go down in your
anger”. I call this, the break-up and make-up
model. Similarly, that same BIBLE said there is
time for everything; this is where one needs
to apply the “uncommon common sense”,
indeed common sense is NOT common, it is
the ‘sixth sense” but, hard to find. It is
expedient to fight and disobey when
necessary but know when to cease-fire; no
man has the monopoly of insults, disrespects,
witch-hunt, etc. It is gainful to know when to
leave a fight especially, when the ovation is
still loud for you. I guess my Governor missed
all these here, he was ill advised, perhaps.
However, he may have his salient reasons for
putting up a fight bigger than him. Although,
some lowlives were busy fanning the embers
for their self-aggrandize ment unknown to
him. Now, where are the advisers beating the
drums of WAR for him them? Guess they’re
having their cool.
When elders chastise, they do so with love.
Often times, they beat with the right hand
and receive you back with the left hand. Yes, I
know incorporation back into a fold after a
betrayal depends on; the willingness to
forgive and the willingness to accept you
were wrong, I also guess neither my
Governor nor his antagonisers would have
taken this path correctly. It is either one party
sought for PEACE initially and the other turned
down the hand of fellowship, or both parties
have decided to play dirty at the detriment of
the common man. Too often my people have
misconstrued POWER to be a tool to usurp
authority and flex muscles, too bad. Yes,
Governor Amaechi missed it ab initio but
forgive.
Thing is, my political leaders from the Niger
Delta are yet to understand what “divide and
rule” means in Nigeria. Our unity is
tantamount to doom for some so called elites
from the ‘greedy and born-to-rule-re gion’,
they will do everything humanly possible to
stymie our unity and dismember our political
common-fronts. Too bad my political leaders
prefers dissipating their energies and flexing
their ill gotten political muscles ONLY within
the region, they prefer to be used by others
against their brothers. Truth is, if it were in
other regions; their political leaders would
concertedly work in a common-front for the
common good of their people. Instead of
doing this, rather my people would prefer to
play the “stinking saint” of self-delusion;
they’ll want to appear to be Countrymen.
They’ll appear to be statesmen even when
they’re not, they want to ‘impress’ others at
the detriment of our people, how has that
helped our region and people?
Now, some born-to-rule bigots whose
interest is to make this Country ungovernable
have succeeded in planting the seed of
discord between the political rank and file in
the Niger Delta whilst, their region remains
unitedly conceited. I wonder when my South-
South leaders would learn to stop presenting
themselves to be used as the laboratory
animals (political animals) against each other
at alter of political greed that benefits their
instigators? When two South-South political
bigwigs fight, a non-Southerner benefits from
being the brain behind it. As we speak, the
heavens are telling and falling on Amaechi,
even the gods are angry. Poco a poco, the
Governors supporting my Governor are all
hiding their heads, why? After noising
everywhere and supporting him, they’re now
hiding and denying him already.
Nonetheless, RIVERS people are at the
receiving end in this directionless, shameless
and greedy fight of showmanship. I reiterate,
what is our collective interest in this fight?
Heed to wise counsel; “END THE WAR IN
RIVERS STATE”, make PEACE now that you still
had the chance. Sheath your swords, make
peace with all men, apologise where
necessary and move on. I’ll be direct and open
here, my Governor should retrace his steps
and make peace before water pass garri.
Where are the elders that gave you their
support initially, where are your counterparts
(fellow Governors) that appeared to be
supporting you? Particularly, where’s
Kwankwaso, Babaingida Aliyu, Uduaghan,
Chime, Lamido, Oshomole, Shettima, Fashiola
etc? Where are they? Are they on holidays or,
they’ve used and dumped you? Please sir, for
your own good, make peace and move,
there’s no trophy to be won.
This is my senseless sense again, harken.
Always,
MAOBUYE NANGI OBU

I was watching pdp dinner night yesterday held at the presidential villa. Hmmmmmmm! What I saw there. The only person that was missing in that dinner night was amaechi. Even tambwal gave a speech amongst other haevy weights. All the pdp governors were there live. Gej said in his speech that in the eleventh hour pdp will be united as has always been in the past. Gosh! You needed to see the love been shared in that dinner. Wow! Wtf.... Waht is amaechi's fate. Mehn politics is really dirty. When the chips are down, we will know amaechi's fate. Damn.

Going by wha i saw and observed at d PDP dinner, Jonathan is an emerging strong man of Nigerian politics,everythn revolves around him now and he has the support of all the zonal pdp chairmen and d likes of BOT chairman Anenih, David Mark are also behind GEJ. OBJ,IBB and Atiku saw it coming and decided to hide in shame thats y they r absent. Am really sorry for Amaechi coz he has been used and by the time GEJ z done wit him he wil become politically irrelevant.

there is something you cant take away from gov. Ameachi he is a good fighter,nobody can equate him to be a coward. he is the type that can pilot this country.
