A plot allegedly directed at forcing Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State out of office in a way
former Governor Chris Ngige of Anambra State was subjected to in 2003 was unveiled, yesterday.
The plot, allegedly aimed at forcing Amaechi out of office through blackmail while being kept
incommunicado, it was claimed yesterday, would also involve family members of the embattled
governor as co-conspirators.
The plot was made known in a statement by the Rivers’ Peoples Forum, RPF, signed by its president,

his estranged political godfather, Chief Chris Uba.
The point of the blackmail was, however, not detailed in the statement by RPF, which claimed that
Amaechi would be seized and forced to record his resignation speech for subsequent broadcast.
The chairman of People Democratic Party PDP fac in the state, Felix Obuah, who has led the campaign
against the governor was in a meeting when Vanguard sought his reaction to the statement. A text
message sent on the issue had not received a response at press time.
RPF in the statement said: “This fresh plot to illegally remove Governor Amaechi from office is another
desperate move by the Abuja cabal that is desperate to remove the governor from office by all means

governor being blackmailed and threatened to resign from office.
“Incontrovertible information at our disposal indicates that the Abuja cabal working with some expired
politicians in the state has planned to execute this plot within three weeks. The hatchet man of the
expired politicians is a former Rivers State legislator, who was recently involved in the failed plot to
remove the state Speaker Otelemaba Amachree, which led to the fracas in the state Assembly. The

Look Amaechi, if the presidency wants to kidnap you, trust me you won't
even hear of it. You will only see it happen.

You are just lucky that GEJ in spite of all this still loves you as a
brother. Try it with someone like BABA or Abacha and the song you are
singing now would have been different.

Grow up Amaechi............ u are among those destroying dis country

israel007: He's only seeking attention. Paranoia. Geared towards begging for sympathy. They don't even have any evidence. Mere speculation

The plan was to be executed in 3 weeks and they hear of it now. That's too like NOLLYWOOD.

You must be very stupid to say this,the world is moving forward should we still be behaving like barbarians?

This country is full of people with darkerned conscience. Thats why we have and keep having the kind of leaders we keep having.
