Michael Oni, a professor of political science, has said that the decision by aggrieved APC cheiftains, Amaechi and Onu, to remain in the party could be dangerous. Speaking on Channels TV, Prof. Oni expressed concern regarding the level of quietness observed by both APC leaders as the 2023 election draws nearer.
Addressing the topic, Prof. Oni said, "The decision by Ogbonnaya Onu and Amaechi to remain in the APC despite being aggrieved is more risky than the PDP situation involving Nyesom Wike. They can cause damage within the party by staying in the party, unlike Governor Wike, who is continuously expressing his grievances.
He continued, "I think Amaechi and Onu have been suspiciously quiet, and it is risky. You can not wish them away, and they seriously need to be appeased. You can not claim that Amaechi is not a power broker in Rivers State. The party needs votes from Rivers State. The APC needs to appeal to Onu and Amaechi to faithfully stay with them. "

Ok

Honestly it's a very foolish decision with no I repeat no benefit zero

One there is no way tinubu can trust them anymore absolutely no chance they can be ministers under him anymore

So start afresh negotiate with PDP or labour it's a risk ...but what's the worst that can happen

Same thing with osibanjo

Expect a miracle they have all reached the highest political positions they can ever reach ...so I see no point not to take risk

Remember ambode don't be like ambode

The last time I check he was obedient

Truth is I like Amaechi so much and he remains my most liked and revered politician in the world, and I'm unapologetic about that. I have my reasons for that. I prefer his silence this period than him throwing himself on a candidate that represents everything wrong with Nigeria. Amaechi has achieved much for his age politically and still has some age at his side. Whether he is appeased or not, let him stay away from Tinubu's ambition. It will do him more good and keep his respect intact. After all he is not one of Tinubu boys and shouldn't be seen as one. Same advice I will want to give to Osibanjo too. STAY AWAY from Tinubu campaign and imminent defeat.

Omu is very very lightweight. In fact, he can't guarantee 25 votes in his ward.
. Amaechi is formidable at least, the major problem is that Rivers is a predominantly pdp state. Even when he was in power, PDP won all elections. However, his experience is useful

Can anyone remind me the total votes Amaechi and Onu delivered to APC in the 2015 and 2019 presidential elections respectively in their states?

With due respect to the two of them, it is my wish that they stay back in the party and support the presidential candidate of their party. That’s how to show that they are Democrats and not bad losers. However, I will rather have Dave Umahi in Ebonyi and Wike in Rivers working for APC than Onu and Amaechi if it comes down to making a choice.

In politics, pragmatism trumps emotion. It is what it is.
