In Rivers State, things like these are not celebrated because Amaechi removed our brother GEJ.

I am just saying the truth.

HE REMOVED OUR BROTHER AND PUT AN HAUSA MAN.

That was the crime Hon. Amaechi committed. Very few care that he is the best Governor to ever rule Rivers State and GEJ was running the nation into the ground.

He construted over a hundred roads, many with underground drainages. He built bridges and Fly overs.

He developed a large fishing farm for Rivers State. A large banana plantation, a large poultry and a WHO standard syringe factor. He was an amazing governor.

Rivers Songhai Farm
DSC_0755

Songhai is a center for training, agricultural production, research and development of sustainable agricultural practices.

The programme was conceived when Governor Chibuike Amaechi visited the Songhai Centre in Porto Novo and was impressed with the model and decided it would work well in Rivers State.

Work began at the Rivers Songhai farm in 2010, before then a group of 105 young men and women drawn from the 23 Local Government Areas of the state had been sent to Songhai International Centre in Benin Republic for 18-month training in various specialized Agric and Agro based areas as well as develop entrepreneurial culture.

The farm project sits on a 314-hectare land in Bunu-Tai, an agrarian community in Tai Local Government Area of the state. It is about 20 times the size of the Songhai model — an integrated farm which combines livestock, arable farming, fisheries, snail farming and poultry.[/b]

@bolded is what I am talking about. What did the others do with their oyel money?

Bros, I have visited all the Niger Delta cities so I know those who performed and those who chop the money.

But unfortunately those who chop their money are making the loudest noise.

When Wike go complete that rail?

Wike will not complete that rail. He said it himself. He will not do anything that will bring praise to Hon. Amaechi.

Remember that Rivers State also suffered neglect and it was in Amaechi's tenure we started feeling like an Oil City. In the five hundred schools he built, during Hon. Amaechi's tenure, books, uniforms, sandals and socks were given free to students and learning free, no school fees.

I know Rivers State suffered a lot of neglect in the past and I know the Federal Government could do more.

But, a lot of harm was done by our Niger Delta leaders and if we do not hold them accountable, they will continue causing us harm.

True talk. But Wike should try to complete that monorail because it is good for the people and not Ameachi.
