saintandsinnerz:

Again, making wack comments just to substantiate your poorly written article. A judge collected 200 million naira and he was not arrested and tried? Really? Are you serious with this? I will ask again what are you smoking over there. Just stop already because you are embarrassing yourself the more!
P.S I care less who wins the election as I'm not from Rivers state neither am i living there. Moreover, the reason why i commented in the post was because i found the article very poorly written and full of personal convictions rather than verifiable facts

Those facts are sacrosanct. The news about Judge Pindinga collecting 200 million naira bribe was reported by Sahara reporters and is in the public domain! So do not be clever by half.Anyways, I do not expect PDP worms to be favorable to an article that clearly exposes their shortcomings. It would have been a great article if only wacko Wike and PDP were praised in the article! Lies no dey tire you?

dinachi:

Hey, this is not PDP government that hates the truth! Get used to seeing Wike in handcuffs. That is his new reality now!

Am done here.......... Whatever rocks your canoe.

saintandsinnerz:

F** off FYI i care less who wins the election. I'm not like you lot who have lost all their senses just because of politicians who don't even know they exist. Tell me what is your gain if Wike or Dakuku wins except to come here and make noise with empty stomach. Continue with your unsolicited praise singing, very soon we will know how far.

son of a wh0re, that you come online hungry doesn't make it a general thing



I'm fine and I'm not on empty belly

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/03/rivers-2015-our-endorsement-of-peterside-irrevocable-ikwerre-monarchs/
Ikwerre monarchs under the aegis of Supreme Council of
Ikwerre Traditional Rulers (SCITR) have said they stand
by the Isiokpo declaration endorsing Dr Dakuku
Peterside, governorship candidate of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State to succeed
Governor Chibuike Amaechi on May 29, 2015.
Paramount ruler of Oduoha-Ogbakiri community, Eze
Ferdinand Ekenta, that of Rumuoro-Ogbakiri, Eze
Charles Oboneme and the traditional ruler of Okporowo-
Ogbakiri, Eze Emmanuel Echonwere, disclosed these in
their separate speeches while receiving Peterside during
his Ward to Ward campaign visit to Ogbakiri in Emohua
Local Government Area of Rivers State.
Ekenta said: “We, members of the Supreme Council of
Ikwerre Traditional Rulers, met at Isiokpo and gave
confirmation that Dakuku Peterside will be the next
governor. We are not going back on our endorsement of
Dakuku Peterside.”
The monarchs disclosed that their decision to stand by
Dr. Peterside, a position they described as irrevocable,
was based on equity, track record of service, character,
good neighbourliness and continuity, emphasizing that
the future of Rivers State was more important in the
consideration of who replaces Governor Amaechi.
In his speech, the APC governorship candidate,
Peterside, said as a sign of his gratitude to the
traditional rulers and Amaechi, he would not disappoint
the people of Ikwerre ethnic nationality if elected
governor of the state on April 11, 2015.
He said, “On the issue of governorship, you know that I
am in the race. The Supreme Council of Ikwerre
Traditional Rulers brought me out. They came together
at Isiokpo to say, for the reputation and future of Ikwerre,
they will not allow the selfishness of one Ikwerre man to
destroy their image.

Governorship candidate of All Progressives Congress
(APC) in Rivers State, Dr. Dakuku Adol Peterside, has
received the endorsement of the Ikwerre Supreme
Council of Traditional Rulers in Isiokpo, the spiritual
and traditional headquarters of the Ikwerre ethnic
nationality.


The Council equally declared Dr. Peterside the sole
governorship candidate for the Ikwerre nationality for
the February 28 election. The Council comprises First
Class and all Government-recognised traditional
rulers in the four Ikwerre local government areas in
Rivers State which comprise Obio/Akpor, Port
Harcourt City, Emohua and Ikwerre.


The Council, which declared that its endorsement of
Dr. Peterside, was out of its resolve to uphold equity
and justice by ensuring that the riverine section of the
state produced the next governor, emphasised that by
its action, no other governorship candidate would
receive its endorsement. The paramount rulers
enjoined all Ikwerre sons and daughters to support Dr.
Peterside come February, 28.


While addressing the Council and other Ikwerre
stakeholders, Dr. Peterside, who was received by Eze
Blessing Wagor, JP, Nye Weli Isiokpo, other members
of the Council and a mammoth crowd of APC
supporters, underscored the importance of Rivers
people making the right and necessary decision in
choosing the next governor for the state. “Your
Majesty, we are about to make another decision as to
who will be the governor of Rivers State. Ikwere as an
ethnic nationality has a very critical role to play at
this point in time in the life of Rivers State. As
custodians of Ikwere culture, Ikwerre values, at a time
of national morale crisis, we expect the custodians of
our culture and value system as traditional rulers and
fathers to lend their voices of reason so that the
people can take the right path.


Speaking further, Dr. Peterside stressed the need for
the Ikwerre to maintain their dignity in the face of
politicians ready to buy people’s conscience.


In response, Eze Iriebe, who spoke through the Vice
Chairman and traditional ruler of Akpor kingdom, Eze
A.A Orlu Oriebe, Nye Weli Akpor kingdom, said, “His
Excellency-in-waiting, on behalf of Ikwerre traditional
rulers, we welcome you and your entourage to the
ancient town of Isiokpo, the ancient town of Ikwerre
tradition. The thing we are doing here today has a lot
to tell. One, you are the only person (governorship
candidate) who saw the need to visit the Traditional
Council, and that you cannot go out there to tell our
people anything without paying homage. When Christ
was born, the wise men visited Him and that is what
you have done today.


“What the Supreme Council of Ikwerre Traditional Rul­
ers requires from every son and daughter of Ikwerre
here present and those at home, is that we want this
message to reach all nooks and crannies of Ikwerre.
When the tenure of our son, our great son, The Right
Honourable Chibuike Amaechi was about to expire,
the Supreme Council asked him questions. Today,
that question has been answered. And what was that
question? The question was, “Your Excellency, with
the level you have taken Rivers State to, after your
tenure, will these things still be maintained? With all
the security challenges we have been facing, after
your exit, what will be the fate of Rivers people?


Today we want to show that the Ikwerre man is not a
greedy person. If because of the population of Ikwerre
…; if we counted on population, I don’t think our son
would be President today. But because Nigerians
agreed that power must shift, today our son from
Bayelsa is President. If we depended on the
population of Bayelsa, a man from Otuoke cannot
stand election (as President) and win. But because it
was agreed that power should shift to the minority as
the minority also has something to offer, power
shifted.

Na here we dey na. even your illiterate Presidiot won't do anything about Dakuku

Amaechi's lack of a political structure is his greatest undoing.
He has been in power for 16 years and has no solid structure of his own.
From his days as a legal government chairman, Wike w h all his thuggish tendencies has had a well oiled machinery.
I see Wike winning and Rivers people will be worse for it because he will have to recoup the money spent the first and this second election.
Expect another loan as soon as he returns a second time.

Those facts are sacrosanct. The news about Judge Pindinga collecting 200 million naira bribe was reported by Sahara reporters and is in the public domain! So do not be clever by half.Anyways, I do not expect PDP worms to be favorable to an article that clearly exposes their shortcomings. It would have been a great article if only wacko Wike and PDP were praised in the article! Lies no dey tire you?

Something being in public domain doesn't make it to be true. For example, this your poorly written article is already in the public domain, but its content does not come to near to the truth; just personal anecdotes. More so, Amaechi was indicted by the judicial panel of inquiry in Rivers statement for corruption and embezzlement, it was published in virtually all the media sources in Nigeria both print and electronic. Does the report being in public domain makes it to be true? please Just stop embarrassing yourself, it is no longer funny.
You have again lost touch with common sense! So if somebody criticize an article that is poorly written, he is automatically a PDP member? No wonder you turned in this rubbish as an article. FYI for the last time, i don't f*** care if APC or PDP wins the election. Do you know why? Because i don't f*** care! You can continue with your unpaid praise singing, it is none of my business.

Say u like him cus I and my family doesn't like him 'water side abi na pipe side'. Rivers is for PDP

SeverusSnape:

Na here we dey na. even your illiterate Presidiot won't do anything about Dakuku

Even with your calling Buhari an illiterate, he still won! So are unconsciously saying that Dakuku will win?

The verdict has come too late in the day. Wike has settled and consolidated while the APC at the centre has barely done anything since it came to power and remains unpopular south of the Niger. For different reasons I will say the verdict came too early and too late to hand any hope to the APC. I can't see any South-South state going to the APC in this election cycle. The APC needs to do more. Much more.

@ op after all this your rant hope you have your pvc to vote 4dakuku , if not na bobo juice u just day talk.

O boy you have a way of making Jonathanians to weep each time they try to sound reasonable.

It is a matter of justice and equity. PDP might swap Wike to have chances at the pole.

Why was he changed then? Clown. We know how you PDP worms fight and we also know how to give you a bloody nose. Go back to you house and await seeing Wike on handcuffs because it is going to happen sooner than later. Criticize the article all you like, it wont change the indices on ground. Wike is a goner,live with it!

MIM77:
Nice write up! You are on track.

Thanxs

Peterside can't win the Rivers gubernatorial election simply due to the reson that Rivers isn't an APC state. The only reason why APC held Rivers under Ameachi is because he DEFECTED to the party. Ameachi was elected under the PDP platform, and his defection in no way mirrored the general riverian sentiment. With this being said, why can't people understand that Peterside can't win beacause his party influence in Rivers is close to nil. Look at the composition of the state's legislature; it's PDP dominated. Now I'm not saying that the election wasn't rigged, that's a complete different matter. However, if we are going to go on a witch hunt against alleged rigging, then the process should be thourough, and no ome should be speared or overlooked. APC governors should also be scrutinised. I'm sure if the same strict standard was applied nationwide (and not only applied to Wike) Bujari wouldn't have become president of our dear Nation ( Not with the huge amount of underage voters who voted for him in the North). The same argument applies for Jonathan as well, rigging was also down in his favor in the states in which he had a stronghold.
Sha no be as if any of dis be any of my concern, just giving nairaland my take on events.

Dannyset:
Like I told somebody, that if APC didn't want to win this, they won't have gone to the extent of contesting this election at the Tribunal and get it nullified. Tho PDP played into their hand, but APC is usually ready to deploy everything to claim this.
Soldiers, Police and even Amaechi thugs would be used to win this election for Dakuku. APC just want PDP to test out of their normal way they use to intimidate people.

Chanji kai! Even buhari as inec boss pdp will still win Rivers!

SeverusSnape:

Fair enough but right now, APC has the upper hand. Jonathan is no longer in power and Wike will be fighting alone. Watch and see. The table has turned.
All the Local Government Chairmen that Wike removed are all Amaechis boys with a score to settle with Wike. They are Amaechis grassroot army.

Wike need to question,he borrowed 30b within 30days in d office,he must account 4 it.

SeverusSnape:
Dream on... If you believe APC will win Rivers, then you should believe PDP will win Kano.

"APC will win Rivers" , Joke of the decade.

Rivers is not filled with brainwashed people who will be deceived with Aregbe "odourless fufu".

Would you say Ekiti people were not brainwashed with bags of rice in the name of stomach infrastructure?

Truth is most of us Nigerians are blind. We move about everyday with our eyes open, still we can't see properly; can't differentiate black from white.

Hence the political elites take us for granted.

dinachi:

Amaechi has a structure. Watch and see it well deployed!

When did he develop this structure?
He never had one while in power, where did the structure appear from now that he is out of power?

dinachi:
The tensions surrounding the verdict of the Rivers election Tribunal has just eased ditto briefly after the tribunal presiding judge announced sonorously that the process of the elections was deeply flawed. He charged INEC to re conduct the elections within 90 days. Camp of the indefatigable APC leader and motivator in Rivers state, His Excellency the Right Honorable Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi was thrown into jubilation. No doubt the ministerial nominee must be feeling very happy right now as all his worries are dissipating one after the other. On the other hand, the governor of the state Wike must be wondering now how to wriggle out of this misfortune. From all indications, a rerun is imminent, whether Wike appeals or not. The question now is who will carry the day? Most people especially members of the opposition party the PDP are upbeat that Wike will carry the day but there are undeniable facts that exposes that optimism to be far fetched. Very clearly, Dakuku Peterside will not only win but will have a landslide victory. Lets look closely at these reasons.

1, PDP and Jonathan are no longer at the center.
Many people are making the mistake of overlooking this all important fact. They fail to understand that Rivers politics is always in tune with the party at the helm of affairs at the federal level. There is no way Wike and his cohorts will expect any kind of support or even sympathy from the Police or Military or even INEC as all these institutions are going to be neutral now and will quickly deal with any deception from Wike and or PDP. Infact, it is safe to say that these federal organs will be at the beak and call of APC. Many will argue that Buhari will not allow the kind of brigandage under Jonathan to happen in Rivers but they fail to understand that Buhari is determined to have Rivers and Akwaibom in the kitty of APC. In a nut shell federal might is now with APC!

2, Doggedness of Amaechi.
Many who do not know Amaechi personally make the mistake of overlooking his doggedness but it is on record that Amaechi has never lost any political battle! History favors him and he will once again deploy his magic wand that swept Jonathan out of power in Rivers state. For confirmation check out the list of his current political battles.
a, In spite of the substitution of his name in 2007 he won in court and went ahead to reclaim his mandate.
b, He won the governors forum election inspite of jonathan and even when Jonathan succeeded in polarizing the forum, eventually at the end of Jonathan tenure even former governor Godswill Akpabio admitted he won
c, He clearly sent Jonathan packing from Aso Rock
d, Inspite of Wikes machinations, he was given a hero's reception and screened by the senate.
e, Through his doggedness the election of Wike has just been annulled.
Love him or hate him, Amaechi is a political legend.

3, The Upland/Riverine dichotomy.
In Rivers state, there is a gentlemanly agreement between these two political blocks. Unfortunately,for Wike , he is coming to replace another man from the Upland, Amaechi. Fortnately for APC, Peterside is from the Riverine area and by this agreement Peterside has the upperhand.Some people will argue that this is not a strong point as it did not improve Petersides chances before but they forget that PDP was still in power then and Wikes thuggery was deployed with federal might to diminish this important issue. Now that Wike cannot count on the federal support,Amaechi and Peterside will play this sentiment up to their advantage.

4, Wike cannot count on Patience Jonathan support.
There is no doubt that the former first lady threw her weight behind Wike with all its appurtenances and what a weight! Then she could order generals around and even the IG of police was scared of her but today none of those things obtains anymore. She is more concerned about protecting her alleged ill gotten wealth than coming out openly to support Wike.

5, Alleged plan by EFCC to arrest Wike.
It was the APC in Rivers state that started the rumor, when they claimed that he will run away immediately he hands over power to the speaker of the house in preparation for the rerun. He will immediately loose his immunity and reliable sources say a dossier about his stewardship when he held sway as minister of education and also supervised the ministry at a time is with the EFCC. All the EfCC is waiting for is for him to step down and they will swoop in on him. If this happens, it will completely destroy his already battered image and kill his chances of being elected.

6, Rivers people love Dakuku
It is not doubtful at all! Most Rivers people especially those in the riverine areas totally adore Dakuku. Wike was totally aware of this fact and that was why he had to deploy thugs and security agents to compromise the elections. Now that APC controls the center, watch as Rivers people will show him love at the polls.


And finally, Amaechi, APC and Peterside has the psychological advantage. They have been winning so far and it is expected that they go on winning!

Abeg lalasticlala, Ishilove lets do the needful on this post!

Madness get step by step.

The mentality in most oil producing states in the south is that 'we have the resources so what are we aligning with the centre for, afterall even the President's salary is paid by resources from here. For the APC to win the south they need to make the south 'want to belong' but all its utterances and activities are alienating such as the DSS invasions and the recurring EFCC harasments. With a presidential 'experience' the south has weighed its destiny and decided the whole thing is over-rated.

It is a matter of justice and equity. PDP might swap Wike to have chances at the pole.

This might have been possible if the party had a structure outside Wike. The man has collapsed the party structure intended his.
PDP will not be daft enough to change him as their bearer.

You are very correct my brother! Wike resorted to thuggery and compromising the process. Ordinarily, it will be difficult for any riverrine person to vote Wike.

REASONS WHY WE ARE NOT GOING TO VOTE FOR DAKUKU

I hear more of Amaechi than dakuku in the News that means indirect rule by amaechi. Den I ask who is the APC candidate

Amaechi and APC should come and explain to Rivers people what happened to money they got from the sale of state property as stated by the petition in front of the senate.

Amaechi and the APC should tell Rivers people who are the contractors that collected our IGR and what was the percent that was paid to state government if it was not against the state laws

Amaechi and APC should come and explain to us what happened to the 1Billion he was saving for Rivers state every month.

Amaechi and APC should come and explain the contract details of the Monorail project.

WIKE WILL WIN (www)
