Symphony007: you see why i said you should keep off this debate because the cracks in your understanding of it will become glaring.

Firstly, ameachi has not abandoned his responsibilities as governor despite all he is going through. I was surprised to see him lastv week in old port harcourt township inspectng the new intergrated cultural center under construction and some roads, what about your president who went nigerian children are languishing at home, he is busy calming nerves in his party so he can be president again 2015. How many meeting has he held with ASUU? How many meetings has he held with PDP governor, party leaders, etc..get the figures and know where his priorities lie.

Secondly the head of police in rivers state and every state is a commissioner, not DPO, and the reason he is disrespecting the governor is because he is a tool of the president. Even the strongest jonathan supporter here can attest to that fact.

Xano:
dude, do you reside in rivers state? If No, visit before lie to everyone. If Yes, continue with the lie.

enigmang:

I don't live in Nigeria so anything political about the nation does not impact me but NOI have contributed to the development of my state. Thanks to her, the nation you live in paid off most of its debt. It was she that suggested to publish each state's monthly financial allocation from the federal government in an effort to increase transparency of government. It was she that suggested to remove the fuel subsidy scam that you all threw a temper tantrum over until some Hausa guy gave one a breakdown of how beneficial the suggestion was. She equally suggested a budget that would improve the unemployment rate of your nation.

Until Amaechi and his corrupt governors can achieve half of the ish this woman has done and helped half of the people and the nation this woman have helped, then they have the right to attack her. Until then he and his 13 corrupt governors should sit down and focus on their work. They are governors, not thugs.

stine b: quote author=Symphony007] you are saying bigger rubbish! Ameachi has had three police commissioners as givernor. Non has fought him, there are 35 commissioners of police in nigeria except rivers. Non are fighting their governors. For this man to be fighting ameachi. Does it not show he has federal support. He closes down ameachi's new offices but wike's grassroot support movement office populated by thugs are not touched. How stupid do you have to be not to see this or are you just in denial. Ask your president was he can't govern his party. Why is he always fighting governors and other members of his party. If a man can't lead his party, how can he lead a nation. PDP is a mess, the country is a mess, and we're suppose to have a leader? Rather than you to point out this amatuerish way of leadership and thiuggish greed to hold on to power in 2015 you support him blindly.

Likewise. I advise you to talk to your president and tell him he suppose to lead. Not to hunt governors who oppose him, Shred the constitution, abandon a nation in disarray to chase a 2015 agenda. Once again. How many meeting has the president of nigeria held with ASUU so the youths of his country can return to school? How many meetings has the president of nigeria held with PDP governors and factional members to preserve his 2015 ambitions? Make the distiction and how the let's see what moral guts you have to reply me.In your little mind,I'm sure you think you have madde sense!schewwwwwwww

chucky234: Because aunty Ngozi wants to kill us with excessing borrowing leave huge domestic debt running into trillions of dollars.

Imanuelle: What a shame




they haven't been able to loot as usual

Easyfren: Governors of south south who reigned betweem 1999 and 2007 except few of them fought for resource control and earned 13% derivation they enjoy today
What is Amechi going to be remembered for? That he antagonized his brother? None of those governors supporting Amechi will do what Amechi is doing to GEJ to a president that comes their region no matter his mistakes. Even as a governor, Amechi does not know NIGERIA. It is disheartening.

ujoinme: Members of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum have called on the Minister of Finance, who is also the Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, to resign her appointment if she knew she would not be able to adhere strictly with the Appropriation Act 2013.

They said the non-compliance with the revenue projections of the Federal Government 2013 Budget was also a direct breach of the provisions of the Appropriation Act, 2013.

These decisions were part of the resolutions of the Governor Rotimi Amaechi-led NGF, which met in Abuja on Tuesday evening.

States which were represented by their governors at the meeting were those of Rivers, Niger, Kwara, Osun, Ekiti, Ogun, Adamawa, Oyo, Lagos, Sokoto, Jigawa, Kano and Zamfara while deputy governors of Edo, Borno and Nasarawa states represented their governors.

The governors also called for the immediate dissolution of the Economic Management Team.

killuminati: shut uuupp! Wetin Okonji Iwela don do? No be to dey chop chop chop anytin she set her okpolo eyes on? Abi u no seee how obese she be?! Abeg make she varmoot comot!

Babiloko: am a fyn gurl

jmaine:

Oboy, sharapp there . . .Your talking nonsense as usual,

Which trillions of dollars?

manny4life:

Like your DUMB Amaechi, you're so clueless as well. Amaechi is gradually biting off the fingers that are supporting him, she's trying to kill you with debt, when last did you hear that Nigeria couldn't pay her debt? Besides, aren't there good dividends for the debt borrowing? Has Nigeria exceeded her debt ceiling?

chucky234: You get luck say I no catch you the day you quote me to type this crap,na better hot e-slap I for land you.

chucky234: Good dividends?
That can only come from a certificated chronic goon like Manny.
