Naijaland12:
Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers state has accused his predecessor Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi of frittering away N800 million naira for the payment Indian consultants running Nne Kurubo Model School at Ebubu-Eleme.
Wike disclosed this in an interactive session with journalists in Government House.
He said because of government’s indebtedness to the Indian consultants, the Nne Kurubo Model Secretary School, the school was shut down.
Wike also alleged that Amaechi paid N9billion to consultants to award scholarship to Rivers state students overseas when the state has a Scholarship Board duly charged with the job.
He wondered how the former Governor could have run an administration driven by consultants without plunging the state into the debt it found itself.
Wike debunked the claim that Amaechi left N7 Billion naira in the state coffers.
He wondered why Amaechi did not use the money, if available, to pay Pensioners,settle the allowances owed Rivers students on scholarship,pay the workers of the disbanded TIMARIV and others.
Governor Wike also dismissed the allegations in the social media that former President Goodluck Jonathan paid him N108 Billion.
He said heard it but refused to respond because the allegation was spurious and unintelligent.
“People should should not think that Nigerians are unintelligent people to believe such tale as if N108Billion is such such money that can be paid without a trace.We must show some sense of intelligence. Was the money paid to me before I was sworn in Was it in cash? Did the former President have the power to sign out that kind of money?”Governor Wike quizzed.
On the N10 Billion naira loan he recently secured through the Zenith Bank he explained that the loan was tied to specific projects that were beneficial to the state but abandoned by the previous administration. The projects include; Ilabuchi road linking Eagle Island,the Law faculty at the Rivers University of Science and Technology, Akpajo/Woji Road, Rumuepricom-Rumuolumeli road and roads in Diobu,Eleparawon.

Hian, all this obsession with Amaechi.
It's becoming boring and nauseating biko.

Oga Wike, make sure your hands are clean.
If you are coming into equity, come with clean hands.

Happy Sunday.

How can you waste your ample time writing the above rubbish? I guess you're been bored simply because your hero Ameachi is the subject of these revelations and frauds. If somebody like Fayose had been caught in similar web, someone like you would have asked him to face firing squad. Nigeria will continue to crawl with double-sided and hypocritical people like you. Today, probe NNPC and Deiziani, tomorrow, don't witchhunt Ameachi and Tinubu. Gosh!

MizMyColi:


I'm actually new on here, so I won't blame you if you don't know that I'm a die-hard GEJ fan and by extension, PDP.

Easy bro.
I usually don't respond to tantrums like yours, but I'm taking the pains because you misunderstand.

vimi:
Amaechi... mother's shud beware of that name, iit simply means FAILED person

OLADD:


Call it tantrum or whatever you like, it doesn't bother me and this does not have anything to do with either we are pro-GEJ or not. Rather, we should be objective, precinct and objective in our comments. If Ameachi is found to be corrupt, he should face the music squarely. Governance and probe can go side by side.

after 8yrs as governor lol pls wat ur own name so we wuld no who is a failure between u and amechi koz I knw u havnt even b selected as class captain not to talk of governor #ACE

Bugatie:


That figure is hugely understated,

The Indian consultants were paid so much you begin to wonder what exactly they needed the money for, and when you compare it with the meagre peanuts they paid their teachers, you just weep.

AhmadMind:





Why Indians?....


Just asking..
