Press Release: No Nigeria Governors' Forum (NGF) Meeting For Monday- Amaechi by Nobody: 2:41pm On Jun 16, 2013
On Saturday June 15 and Sunday June 16, reports in the media credited to my brother governor, Governor Jonah Jang of Plateau State announced that he has called for a Nigeria Governors’ Forum meeting. Ordinarily I would have ignored these reports as I do not imagine that as governors who hold our people’s mandate through the democratic process of free and fair elections, we would do anything to impugn our integrity.


However as chairman of the Nigeria Governor’s Forum, elected by my colleagues to safeguard their integrity and that of the forum it has become imperative for me to request my brother and Governor Jang to remain within the confines of decorum and cease to impersonate me and to stop parading himself as NGF chairman. There is only one chairman of the forum, duly elected by a vote tally of 19: 16 on Thursday, May 23, 2013.

For the avoidance of doubt, I as chairman of the NGF have not called for any Governors’ Forum meeting for Monday, June 16, 2013. The only meeting scheduled for Monday June 16, is a meeting of all Governors with His Excellency, President Goodluck Jonathan scheduled to hold at 9pm at Aso Rock Villa. All governors should please ensure attendance at this meeting with Mr. President.

I wish to reassure my brother governors that this storm shall pass and we all will be reunited as one family committed to our nation’s unity and supporting Mr. President in his vision for a Nigeria that safeguards the rights of all its citizens to good governance and democratic norms.

Governor Jang is my brother and friend and I harbor no ill feelings against him, but it is important that he stops this impersonation, as it could threaten all the good work we all have done together.

May I remind Governor Jang that there is a legal action that has been instituted against him by Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State from parading himself as the chairman of NGF. As leaders elected by our people, Nigerians are closely watching us. We must comport our selves according the dictates and principles of democratic and lawful practices and norms.


CHIBUIKE ROTIMI AMAECHI
Governor, Rivers State/Chairman, Nigeria Governors’ Forum(NGF)

This is what a nation gets when her citizens elect leaders that are cheat.

Person no win election, e dey claim say na him get ballot. I'm sure the school Jang attended, he was taught that the candidate with the lesser vote wins an election or maybe he doesn't know arithmetic, 19 is greater than 16.

Amaechi and his followers are being funny. Since after the 'elections' why has he not convoked a meeting of his followers? Jang has done that a number of times. Even the NEC meeting he is clinging to on Monday was convoked by the Presidency. What is he afraid of? He should go ahead and convoke meetings as the 'authentic NGF governor' and not be worried by Jang.

One thing is clear here, NGF can never be the same again in this dispensation. Their unity is cracked and even that of the northern governors is destroyed, all because Amaechi want to lead his mates against the wishes of his party hierarchy and other power blocs. The worst case scenario is for Jang faction to rename their union and the split lingers, and that inherently destroyed NGF. And by the way, which serious group retains a rogue operative as a leader? A man suspended by his party leading the opposition governors is what it is- opposition governors forum.

And for the noisy lots up there letting out empty emotions, this case has been decided. Invest your emotions in more important things. Mbeki lost SA presidency when he lost the support of his party. Same thing happens everywhere. You can't stand against the sentiments of your political party and leaders and expect to have a smooth sail. Anyway, i don't expect you guys to relax. Noise is in your DNA. You shouted more during Silva's saga.

Some corrections Bro.
*We all know Oga @ the Top is the desperate one and not Amaechi.
* Oga you can lie ooo...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/President_of_South_AfricaMbeki was a two-term SA President. He only tried to stop his VP (Zuma) from succeding him which failed.
*Could you please provide evidence of that reasonable people's outrage against GEJ hounding of Amaechi is less than Silva's.

Ameachi does not need to issue press statements announcing himself chairman. He should simply do what Jang is doing - call for meetings and let's see how many governors will heed the call. Tomorrow's meeting was called by Jang in his capacity as chairman of NGF. Ameachi can stay away if he doesn't want to recognise him as his chairman. Jang called for the meeting and had sent out invitation letters.

PHOTONEWS: Plateau Governor Jonah Jang Chairs "Nigeria Governors' Forum" Meeting With 16 Governors In Attendance







Governor Jonah Jang of Plateaus State today chaired a meeting of the factionalized Nigeria's Governors's Forum with only sixteen state governors in attendance .

Mr. Jang had assumed the position of the chair of the group after he was defeated by Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State two weeks ago.
