| First Lady scolds governor in public. by MRMoneyE(m): 12:51am On Aug 25, 2010 |
[b]The First Lady’s two-day visit to Rivers State ended in a fiasco yesterday. All was well, until Dame Patience Jonathan and her chief host, Governor Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi got to Okrika – the First Lady’s home town. The governor was explaining by video his school project in Okrika, saying there must be demolition of some buildings to have space for the schools. Mrs Jonathan cut in, grabbed the microphone and said the governor should reconsider the way he was going about the demolition. An attempt by Amaechi to explain the situation sent the First Lady boiling. She shouted at Amaechi: "Listen!, you must listen to me!" The governor was embarrassed, like a scolded school pupil. The audience hailed Mrs Jonathan, goading the First Lady on. The President’s wife, however, described land as a serious issue in Okrika and told Amaechi to always avoid "must" when talking about waterfronts’ demolition. The governor never mentioned "waterfronts", but Mrs. Jonathan went on: "I want you to get me clear. I am from here (Okrika). I know the problems of my people. So, I know what I am talking. I do not want us to go into crises. We are preaching peace and we must maintain peace at any time. "But what I am telling you is that you always say you must demolish. That word ‘must, you use is not good. It is by pleading. You appeal to the owners of the compound, because they will not go into exile. Land is a serious issue." Downcast, Amaechi shunned a reception organised for the First Lady. The reception was, however, not on the programme. Mrs Jonathan hurriedly left for Abuja. Her planned visit to Port Harcourt prisons, where the Chief Judge, Justice Iche Ndu, was expected to release some prisoners, was cancelled. So was her visit to the new Model Secondary School at Ebubu-Eleme, among others. A civic reception in honour of the President’s wife was held at the Sharks Stadium, Port Harcourt on Monday. Her pet programme, Women for Change Initiative (WFCI), was launched. This was followed by a state banquet/Award Night at the Government House, Port Harcourt, where the former Miss World, Agbani Darego, who hails from the state, and some women were honoured for their outstanding contributions to society.[/b]

What I get from her statement is that she is saying half of port harcourt is Okrika and the other half is Ikwerre. The north of the red land is Ikwerre , while the south is Okrika. This is what her statement means. I hope I make sense.

[size=14pt]Amaechi, INC President, War Over PH Waterfronts[/size] http://nationalpointonline.com/nponline/index.php?mact=News,cntnt01,detail,0&cntnt01articleid=2200&cntnt01origid=84&cntnt01returnid=84 The water front demolition seems to be a very touchy issue that has even been taken up by human rights groups. Some see it as ethnic warfare, others see it as targetting the poor for displacement, development etc. I think non-indegenes would be wise to steer clear of comments on this one. |

FOR THE FIRST TIME, I AM PROUD OF THE WIFE OF AN ELECTED OFFICIAL. GREAT JOB BY HER. I HOPE THAT ALL THIS OVER-ZEALOUS GOVERNORS LIKE FASHOLA AND CO. WHO GO ABOUT DESTROYING PEOPLE'S LIVES AND LIVELIHOODS ALL IN THE NAME OF "DEVELOPMENT" HEAR THIS. |

she's such an uncouthly, untutored individual who'd probably ruin the small landmark her husband is working hard to achieve ahead of general elections with her power drunkenness and cheap attempt at public recognition, marred by terrible grammar! I mean, someone should get her an English tutor already! 3 Likes |

Power drunk woman, she is taking undue advantage to insult an elected governor , I want to believe all that is said about this woman life style is true, O.K. I don't support People being rude to others (and all that gangsta microphone snatching) but the last time I checked nobody had elected Rotimi Amaechi into office as governor. Yup! |

Obimek:Indeed, she could have; but it is important not to miss that dialogue is the best way to go. Sharon-f: Just take it cool a bit on her. You need to know that the vexing issue is a very sensitive one, and the tendency to be emotional is high. This comment does not however, condone any bashing of a public figure. The intricacies are more than just the faults of the first lady. It's a complex matter; and that is why I still think and wish that the matter be resolved amicably with dialogue. |

I think the press is just making unnecessary mountain out of a molehill. There is nothing 'scolding' or wrong in what she said, she is a stakeholder from Okrika, hence has a right to voice her opinion. |

Theres a time and a place for everything, and berating a fellow public official in front of the populace just to get cheap publicity just doesnt cut it! |
