Well Lagos keeps developing everyday. I pity una 4 that side. You people allowed emotion to becloud your decision and now the consequences are knocking at your door.

Instead of looking past party and vote for a competent person, your brought in tout hence rate of cultism is poaching everyday in rivers state.

Why didn't you look beyond party before voting baba dullard, or Saraki as senator etc.. shift jare.... partisinist...

Any Riverine native expecting Gov Wike to build/construct a bridge to connect them to Port Harcourt must be in a long thing. Gov Wike will only at best award contract to sandfill and do shore protection but will be too ready to finish all the road projects in his Obio-Akpor.

Truth is, we fooled ourselves for not voting Dakuku Peterside or Tonye Princewill. We collectively rigged him in just because we were fighting Amaechi who I think had our best interest at the time...

So your eyes are clearer now abi? Amaechi left his very close and more rugged friend Magnus Abbey to seek for power equity in Rivers State between upland and riverine but they used every means possible to thwart it. The truth is that upland might rule till 2023 and if care is not taken 2031.

You guys are so funny.
I laugh when I see people that don't know how to get to PH, talk shit.

I've lived in Port Harcourt for the most part, for the past 25years.

Yes, Ameachi worked in his first tenure, but the roads he constructed, are they not the same roads being done by Wike? Have you taken time to view the way the projects are lined up for execution? Oh, you expect him to leave, Port Harcourt, the capital, and start with Okrika, abi?

I remember when Port Harcourt was scary, during Amaechis tenure, where little boys were walking on the street, and gunning people down for no reason, in broad daylight.

My folks went to the Assistant commissioners office not far from Aggrey, and they were under bombardment for anywhere between 30mins to One hour. All during the "great" Amaechi's tenure.

At the time, I attended RCCG, and the pastor said he was in his house, and just as he moved from the spot, he noticed a bullet flew through that area. Even he said he might seek transfer from Port Harcourt.

Getting ready to run at any moment was a normal thing.

Need I talk of the curfew? Soldiers everywhere?

Do we need to talk about Odili that started this?

Politicians would always be the same....at least, in Nigeria

So if anyone that just moved to PH last year starts talking about the violence, because of one or two people that have been gunned down-who might have got involved in stuff.

Think of all the issues in other cities that have risen up, primarily because of the state of things in the country.


So think before you talk.

I hardly write, but I cant stand silliness and irresponsible talk. Always be objective

There are few cities I prefer to PH. Very few..... And I have been/lived in more than 25 states.


“If the current problem with Amaechi is that he is not performing, I will say Jonathan, congratulations. If the current problem with Amaechi is because he is corrupt, I will say Jonathan, I congratulate you 10 times. If the controversy is because security is down in Rivers, I will say Jonathan I congratulate you 100 times. Right now, Jonathan, I don’t congratulate you at all. I say shame on you because you are not doing what is expected of you as a President.”

“If we go by proportion, say Jonathan take what you have done in any area at the national level, and take what Amaechi has done as governor of Rivers in that area, Amaechi scored better in education, health, security; the governor scored one million times better. In Rivers before now, security was bad. In Port Harcourt, which is a garden city of joy, nobody was going out. Amaechi stopped all that. Now you can go out in Port Harcourt and stay till anytime.”....Prof. Tam David West.

Upland will rule for a very long time, the Riverine people will just have to blend well with Bayelsa or Akwa Ibom.

I don't know about you, but for 8 years I watched Amaechi build schools, health centers, farms, roads and sends thousands of Rivers youths abroad on scholarship. If that is what you call sabotage then let him continue to sabotage. You hate Buhari for whatever reason, but Bayelsa people are regretting Goodluck today because what did he do for them? NOTHING! There is no road to his village for God's sake. If you are on ground in Rivers State you will know that people are regretting having Wike there.

You said Bayelsa people are regretting Goodluck today because he did nothing for them... Which is very bad......

So that is d reason why wike don't want he's people to regret voting he.....

For the benefits of those who do not stay in Rivers State this is the true situation of things. The Op. in the first place never voted for Wike. So he has nothing to regret.
Authoritatively, I can tell you that over 65% of the indigenous population of Rivers State stays either in Port Harcourt LGA or Obio/Akpor LGA. I would want the Op. to refute this.
Over 80% of the non-indigenous population in Rivers State stays either in Port Harcourt or Obio/Akpor LGA. In essence these two LGAs are the heart and commercial centres of Rivers State. People complain less when the roads that network these two LGAs are in good conditions including basic amenities, security inclusive. The acts of concentrating development in these two LGAs never started today. Even His Royal Highness Diette-Spiff (King of Twon-Brass) the first military governor of River State despite being an Ijaw man did same. I would say he laid the foundation.
Politicians like window-dressing and playing to the gallery and where that can be achieved is where it could be seen by the literate and exposed populace.
For the information of all, till date Diette-Spiff is regarded as the best governor of Rivers State. Over 90% of his projects as the governor of the state were in these LGA.
We had other Governors of Ijaw stock like Okilo and Ada-George. They did same.
It may not stop with Wike, others to come will follow suit. The reasons part of which as was adduced above the second one is that winning the minds of the populace that reside in both LGAs guarantees you an election victory all things being equal.
If the Op. would say the truth he stays in one of these two LGAs even as a landowner.
Wike's situation is being hyped because he happens to come from Obio/Akpor. Amaechi their hero did the same thing. To an extent that he started to build monorail from the City centre in a place where there is hardly any traffic issue.
Op. there are lots of issues to criticise Wike with this one you chose is not one of it.

you can't justify the ethnic sentiment of Wike

No doubt Gov Wike is working but where? He is only doing the roads in Obio-Akpor and Port Harcourt.

Wike is a chauvinist. He has reneged on his campaign promises to the Riverine communities anchoring on the lame excuse that the state allocation is dwindling. But the same man wants to construct road in Benue and Bayelsa states ...

The roads he is constructing all over the state is for obio Akpor alone? Haba let's be realistic. I am from delta state but stay in PH and my job takes me all over the state.
Wike is working. Keep politics apart. I also guess the road construction going on know ogoni is obio Akpor. Story tellers

Na wa for your lies o! He sabotaged his people by building roads, expanding existing ones and building bridges to link communities better or reduce the issues of traffic congestion?

Or he sabotaged his people by building quality health centres, upgrading public schools and employing qualified teachers to deliver quality education.

I guess he sabotaged his people by building 2 new power plants for electricity supply to rivers state.



I believe in your estimation GEJ was a man of the people which is why his Bayelsa State could not boast of the things Amaechi sabotaged his own people with. I get you, Kudos!
