Outgoing Rivers Governor Opens Campaign Against President Jonathan by Johnnyessence(m): 2:28pm On Oct 02, 2014 |
Outgoing Rivers State governor, Chibuike Amaechi has formally launched a campaign against the reelection of President Jonathan, starting with a live phone-in programme. The Vice Presidential hopeful under APC also rejected requests by Rivers elders and youths who publicly advised him to return to PDP as they saw no future in the APC. He also expressed doubts over the sincerity of the president to ensure free and fair general elections in 2015 as promised by the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Professor Attahiru Jega. Amaechi, who spoke on Tuesday evening when he appeared on ‘Hard Facts’, a live phone-in radio programme in Port Harcourt, the state capital, vowed that he would never return to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). He said: “I will remain in the All Progressives Congress and the state too should support the party. I am supporting APC not because I have not performed, but because if President Goodluck Jonathan wins a second term, the economy will crash. “If he wins a second term, nothing will happen here. The only thing that will happen here is that buccaneers will loot the cash, all the money we are getting. They have already apportioned who will get what money.” He described as diversionary, federal government’s claims that the fall in revenue allocation to states was as a result of oil theft. “Today is better; tomorrow is bad; next tomorrow may be worse. It has never been this bad. “It wasn’t that bad during Shagari government as it is now. As I told you, some states can’t pay salaries, so there is problem in our hands”, Amaechi said. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=754066794655173&id=378378918890631&refid=28&_ft_=qid.6065593038885423623%3Amf_story_key.9149817321446205655&__tn__=%2As 2 Likes |

Opposition is necessary in a democracy but labelled with hatred will only bring anarchy because Nigeria has a desperate opposition who are hell bent on taking powers by all means. This is not healthy for our democracy. Amaechi is particularly insincere. He left PDP less than a year ago when did he now realise that President is misruling? We must be honest With ourselves. ALL the PDP Governors who left for APC were driven by inordinate ambitions and they saw GEJ as an obstacle. As a reply,the type of Amaechi must be told that we YORUBAS will vote GEJ massively because we have realised that HAUSA/FULANIS are domineering not even BUHARI or KWANKWANSO who are ethnic jingoists will have votes in YORUBALAND,we are waiting for them. 6 Likes |

Philantoxx is a very stupid person. I listened to Amaechi's radio briefing this morning on 97.7 radio frequency. He never campaigned against GEJ or anybody. Even when the radio presenter asked him about future political plan, he plainly told him he will face his private life once he leaves office next year. So why all these lies on NL? 3 Likes |

Leave tribalism aside bigot. How come your campaign line is always North this & that? Good governance has nothing to do with if the person in charge is from a particular area. I can bet u are not a Yoruba. We don't play such silly archaic politics. We vote for personality and performance, and not party. All the south west states except Lagos has been ruled by both the PDP and others. If u perform, u'll be voted for, if u dont....u'll be voted out. it's very simple. STOP fanning the embers of tribalism. Pres Jona has not performed to expectations, PDP has failed us at the national level. That is the reason majority in Yoruba land will vote them out. Simple When Adefarati, Lam, Akande & Adebayo (Ondo, Oyo, Osun & Ekiti) of AD didn't perform to expectations, they were voted out. PDP guys were voted in. Those were Agagu, Akala, Oyinlola and Fayose. When they messed up too, they were booted out at the polls as well. Tinubu of Lag, Mimiko of Ondo, Fashola of Lag & Aregbesola of Osun were all able to win re-election because they performed reasonably well. If any governor/party does not perform to the expectation of the masses in Yorubaland, they will be voted out. Just like the case of Fayemi of Ekiti. |
