It is official. My big bros confirmed as a Minister. PDP, nothing for una. I am backing Amaechi to be one of the stand-out performers of the PMB government. The lesson we should all learn from Amaechi is that it pays to be principled, steadfast and dogged rather than shamelessly running from pillar to post like some we know on this forum and as many 'ashawo' Nigerian politicians on the ground are fond of doing. I am sure Amaechi reminds PMB of himself and that is why Mr.President is so fond of him and unwilling to compromise over his inclusion in his cabinet. Oga Amaechi, we dey salute.

Rotimi Amaechi Confirmed As Minister


The former Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, was confirmed as a minister after a dramatic two weeks in the Nigerian Senate. Mr. Amaechi’s screening process by the Senate was postponed three times because of growing dissent by Senators from the People's Democratic Party (PDP) against him.

SaharaReporters reported earlier today that Senators belonging to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) threatened to remove support from Senate President Bukola Saraki if he went through with the confirmation process.

Earlier today, PDP Senators staged a dramatic walkout from the Senate Chambers allowing for APC members to confirm Mr. Amaechi. PDP leaders had demanded that Mr. Amaechi not be confirmed until the Senate Committee on Ethics and Privileges publish their report on his conduct while in office in Rivers State. The committee had stalled because it claimed Mr. Amaechi has a case in court, and his confirmation would be "subjudice."

I SALUTE AMEACHI







YOU ARE a TRUE PROGRESSIVE
A LION
A CONQUERER
A LEADER

The king of the south....

The first time they were dumb, speechless, overwhelmed...

The second time they were intimidated, incoherent, and outclassed into running from the chamber...

Nobody can blame a man for folding in the face of a LION.

Indeed.If GEJ even hand 10% of the tenacity and fearlessness of Amaechi then he might even still be president today. Still shocked that some regions could round against Amaechi because of their devotion to the spineless Jonathan who some of us predicted correctly will crawl into a cave after Buhari is sworn in. Today, and validating our prediction, Jonathan has fled and is hiding. He has totally abandoned his loyalists and the likes of Clark have turned against him out of disgust. He cannot even come out to fight for Wike yet Fayose, someone I detest, still spoke up bravely and loyally in defence of the embattled Rivers Governor.

Was it worth it for those who chose to sink with the cowardly GEJ who stood for absolutely nothing but his own self-interest and that of his cronies? Those folks who vehemently attacked Amaechi, because of GEJ, should remember that Rotimi never ran and he never hid. Nothing illustrates he is a natural leader more than that in contrast to the GEJ they backed 100% who has now abandoned them and their struggle so as to save his own azz.
