Governor Amaechi Bars Jonathan From Using State's Stadium For Campaign by blaze2cool(m): 1:13am On Jan 18, 2015
Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers state has refused
letting PDP use the state owned Adokiye Amiesimaka
Stadium, Igwurita-Ali for its presidential campaign slated
for January 28th.

According to Thisday , PDP had written to the state
government seeking permission to use the stadium for its
presidential campaign but in its response, the government
said the party could not use it as it was under
construction, a position faulted by the PDP.
According to PDP, the APC had used that same stadium
twice recently. Speaking on the matter, the state
Chairman of PDP, Felix Obuah, said the stadium was built
with Tax payers money and so should be available for
use to everyone.

"The facilities of Rivers State are owned by all of
us; all tax-paying people. The Adokiye
Amiesiemaka Stadium belongs to Rivers people;
Rivers State money was used to build it. It was not
meant for the Buhari campaign manager; it is not
his personal property. They used it for their own
rally and their own celebrations. We have applied
to use the place for our rally, come 28th of this
month. But the governor, in his act of impunity, has
refused us the use of that place.".

The Chairman warned that if the decision of Governor
Amaechi is not rescinded, they would use the stadium
with or without any approval.
