Former Petroleum Minister, Prof. Tam David-
West, says the only reason Governor Rotimi
Amaechi of Rivers State is being harrassed by
some political forces is his refusal to be
anybody’s ‘Yes man’.
Prof. David-West, speaking on a radio
programme in Port Harcourt, also asked
President Goodluck Jonathan to be wary of
the Ijaw leader, Chief Edwin Clark and leader
of the Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force
(NDPVF), Alhaji Mujaheed Dokubo-Asari. He
said neither of them had the powers to make
him win the 2015 election.
David-West showered encomiums on General
Muhammadu Buhari, who he said stood tall
when compared to President Jonathan in
terms of achievement as Nigeria’s leader.
According to the former minister, Amaechi
has had to fight alleged injustice of ceding oil
wells belonging to Rivers State in the Kalabari
axis to President Jonathan’s Bayelsa State.
This, he said has not gone down well with
some people.
He added: “I am not a politician. No amount
of money in the world can make me to
change my mind. I support causes, not
persons. What has Amaechi done wrong? He
has not done anything wrong. Professional
praise singers are making millions of naira
through the crisis.
“Those who said Amaechi has received N2.4
trillion since he became Rivers governor,
without commensurate projects on the
ground, are talking rubbish. The Kalabari
people fighting Amaechi are not serious.
They are not more Kalabari than me. Amaechi
has not disappointed Kalabari people.”
Pressed to assess President Jonathan’s
achievements, he said: “I am an unapologetic
critic of President Jonathan. I do not support
you because you are an Ijaw person, from
the South South zone or a Niger Deltan. I
support performers. Twenty four per cent of
Jonathan’s votes came from the South South.
“It is completely illogical to say Jonathan must
be re-elected in 2015, because he is a South
South man. Jonathan is not a South South
President, but the President of Nigeria.
“Clark, Dokubo-Asari and others cannot save
Jonathan in 2015. In an interview in a
national newspaper on June 15, 2012,
Dokubo-Asari declared that Jonathan would
not go beyond 2015 as President. Why is he
speaking from both sides of his mouth?
“You cannot compare one hundred
Jonathans to one Buhari. I will always give
my support to Buhari. He is the finest man I
have ever known. Negative things that they
say about him are not factual. I will continue
to work for Buhari.
“Corruption is the bane of Nigeria. Buhari is
against corruption. Buhari is not corrupt. He
is very clean and disciplined. Election rigging
is worse than armed robbery. Buhari wants
free, fair and credible elections in Nigeria.”

Jonathan is jonathan
buhari is buhari

Words On Marble.

Jonathan is the cordinating minister of corruption.

While you cannot accuse him of stealing (limited info and work of proxies), you can NEVER say Jonathan is fighting corruption.

STEALER ODUAH must go

Segeggs: STEALER ODUAH must go

not must... Due process must be followed...

he has his right to say whatever he wants. But what he should know is that jonathan cant be buhari and buhari cant be jonathan. Anytime anyday I would still prefer 1 GEJ to 10 billion Buhari's.


Just my 2 cents

Segeggs: STEALER ODUAH must go

Jonathan was not the young Lt Buhari who killed fellow officers in Lagos during the eve of July 29, 1966 coup because they were either Igbo or easterners. No wonder your professorship is a total waste in the world of academia. You are a bad road, Tam Doofus-West.

I wonder what your definition of strict and incorruptible is when you associate General Buhari with such CHARACTER qualities. Have you considered that:

* He allowed his ADC bring in 53 suitcases of money when all airports were closed during the changing of naira notes?
* He allowed his Deputy, Tunde Idiagbon travel to Mecca with his children despite a law against such practice?
* He locked up Fela Anikulapo Kuti for trumped up forex charges because his brother, Beko Kuti was a pain in the a'ss for Buhari's DICTATORIAL regime?
* He executed three young Nigerians on RETROACTIVE laws, which normally he Buhari should be charged for judicial murder?
* He jailed all the southern progressive governors and the VP, Dr. Alex Ekwueme while keeping his brother President Shehu Shagari in cosy house arrest in Ikoyi?
* He built a federal government guest house in his village, Daura as Head of State.

Corruption in not simply about stealing money, of which General Buhari stole his fair share despite pretending otherwise, but also about RESPECTING the rule of law at ALL times!!!

one billion buharis can not be equal one finger of Jonathan

The same Buhari that believes Abacha is clean and also worked with him..abeg make I hear word jare

You also have rights to your opinion, but what are your reasons to prefer 1 to 10 billion

let me get adino to explain what is wrong with you,

adino: Angry old man

This is the fact..., every body knows GEJ is corrupt leader!

Truth is bitter, some ppl can not just stomach it, its a shame Nigeria does not have more statesmen like Prof. Tam David west; I doff my hat to the old man for speaking fearlessly, even against his own kinsman, in favour of the truth - which is CORRUPTION IS THE BANE OF ALL OUR PROBLEMS, correct it and everything will fall in its proper place - the likes of Johnathan are the leaders we least deserve.
