A Rivers State Governorship aspirant under the All Progressives Congress, Sen. Magnus Abe has declared that no “amount of gang up can change the will of the people of the State”.
The Senator made the declaration in Okrika Local Government Area of the State while addressing his supporters during the inauguration of BATS Vanguard in the LGA on Sunday.
Sen. Abe was responding to the endorsement of Lagos State businessman, Tonye Cole as the consensus governorship candidate of the APC.
Abe noted that the Rivers people cannot be enslaved by anyone.
He advised his supporters to brace up for the fight ahead, which he said would not be easy.
In his words, “let me assure you all that the road ahead will not be easy. Challenging the powers that have been established will not be easy, but you have the power, you have the capacity, you have the audacity if you’re willing to stand up and fight for what you believe.
“We are not afraid, I know that no amount of gang-
up can over take the will of Rivers people if we make up our mind.
“I have said before and I want to say it again, Rivers people have never been slaves to anybody and nobody no matter the amount of money you have, nobody can enslave us here in Rivers State. We can chart our own destiny.
“We are having an election and people are already bringing in their partner; you all should look for your own partners so you can enjoy the dividends of a good leadership when the time comes and that is the reason I am here today to tell you that I am ready to serve you and I pledge that my kind of government will make sure you eat before I eat”.
Also speaking, the former Attorney-General of Rivers state, Wogu Boms said the endorsement of Tonye Cole as the consensus governorship candidate of the party will not work.
“Do not tell me anything; I know everything, we experimented with Dakuku, we failed spectacularly, we experimented with Tonye Cole, he could not even enter the ballot, we used Awara, we failed woefully again, now we still want to experiment with Tonye Cole again, it will not work,” he said.

tinubu boy

There is no fear of Abe, they just want to shut him off completely which is the issue, they should rather be giving him chance to contest and loose as usual

Amaechi was the one that carried delegates of rivers to convention

Abe could only go as a former senator of apc, he no get level

if ur Amaechi no fear am and if Abe no fit do dem Shege, na by having real transparent primaries go talk am. D only reason una dey fear na because una no fit defeat am for primaries.shikena.
As at today, Abe na statutory delegate for APC primaries wey go vote for APC Presidential primaries. Magnus Abe go deliver hin vote and group vote for Jagaban for APC Presidential primary.

they have had real primaries before just some weeks ago

Abe brought his candidate for deputy chairman south south, amaechi brought giadom

They went to election and Abe got flogged

He only has one vote to himself, he has no group, na only three delegates for rivers he fit pull

The people he pay for rallies are not delegates, he is scamming tinubu

Dat na Selection shared by political zone wey con microzone am to Rivers and since na Amaechi faction Buni recognize, dat na why d errand boy of Amaechi, Giadom, collect am.
State primaries no be so and for APC Presidential primaries, most of d statutory delegates dey for Magnus Abe group. U see ur life so.

Now imagine Rivers wey dey divided and compare to many states wey go deliver 100% for dia preferred candidate. Na Abe go defeat Amaechi again. Even Tonye Cole no be statutory candidate for APC Presidential primaries o. Na Amaechi dey use hin badluck spoil Tonye Cole chances. Tonye dey cool headed . Amaechi go ruin d chances of APC again unless he accept Magnus as formidable wey e supppse partner with instead of fighting

you see how you fooling yourself

Tonye Cole is a statutory delegate and was at the convention together with peterside etc

The zoning of south south to rivers didn't just reach amaechi hand because he is the accepted leader of the party, the post was further contested by Abe who objected to consesus

Yet lost woefully securing only his vote and the candidate he was routing for

Come to Rivers state u will know that Abe is not even on ground Magnus Abe have been relying on Gov. Wike support, Magnus Abe can only boost 3 statutory members, check all d court cases Magnus defeated Amaechi u will see dat they are all wike Judges, now Amaechi has blocked all those Loopholes, right now Magnus have lost out completely what he does is go to diff LGAs to campaign for Tinubu not his for his Governorship ambition, all he does is to decieve his followers that he is on ground, Magnus only Project is Tinubu for ministerial position incase Tinubu wins.

na the same Abe that was crying that Amaechi included dead people as apc delegates

If he had any say in Rivers apc I wonder why amaechi should be the one submitting delegates list

so anyone wey wear aso ebi with Amaechi and follow him to APC convention don automatocally become delegate for APC Presidential primaries? Smh.
Go quote me to ur masters, for d upcoming APC presidential primaries for Abuja, while Abe be a statitory delegate wey go vote Tonye no be a statutory delegate. Dat na why I say u be sumol boy. E go shock u how most of d statutory delegates for Rivers like Abe go vote for Jagaban and not Amaechi. Abe go teach Amaechi lesson again. shiorr

Tonye has better chance of being petroleum minister next year than being governor

You are right bro and it is most likely going to happen

Easy,Abe has lost out in Rivers APC, he is one of the sides of Tinubu hoping for a Tinubu candidature to go through so that his dead political career will be resurrected by an appointment
Amaechi remains the leader of APC in Rivers
What Abe is doing,to Amaechi in Rivers no APC member can do that to Tinubu in Lagos where I reside
Everything will end in praise for Amaechi,Rivers APC and Nigerians in general

u neva ask my question o. Shey Tonye Cole be statutory delegate for APC primaries like Abe and if so which post e hold before.

Why is Amaechi and co Afraid of primary election....even after having d control of river APC dey still can't go for primary but r doing nonsense up and down looking for consensus

Once magnus abe obtain his nomination form all d nonsense consensus will automatically become void backyard politicians

APC can't even win without abe, dey need to work extra hard together if dey want to stand a chance but d arrogant Amaechi will know hw far after d tenure of Buhari, all d rail money he has embezzled is enough tho

Gozac:
He will do well as a governor too

But the odds are against him , he can't face a Wike Abe coalition

SarkinYarki:

you think petroleum minister na by having oil company...

The concensus wey Dem give Tonye Cole doesn't mean other aspirants can't contest or that they wouldn't be any primaries. The major aspirants in APC came together and agreed to make Tonye Cole their preferred candidate meaning that during the primaries they will rally their supporters/delegates behind Tonye.

Abe should stop talking and age Cole in the primaries. He sounds like he has been restricted from contesting the primaries.
When I hear Abe say ameachi is running a one man show in Rivers I wonder what he calls tinubu in Lagos politics. Tinubu is a lord in Lagos compared to what ameachi is in rivers. If Abe was in Lagos him go fit challenge tinubu like he dey do with ameachi. Every tom dick and Harry dey insult ameachi like say the pdp for rivers under wike dey practice democracy.
I challenge anybody here to point one state wey God father nor dey. Mention one let's debate it. Make I hear u say Edo!!!
