DON don't take side. Amaechi real opponent is Wike and power dynamics didn't favour him because of Tinubu. It's better to lay low and grab anything opportunity that favour him

Maybe he will team up with El-Rufai which is also not looking good for him.

As at now Wike controls both PDP and APC structure in Rivers State.

He left the scene already Let Wike feel the wrath of Rivers state ,same way he made Amaechi looked like the enemy of the state.


Same position ,same selling out Rivers state votes and Sponsoring Campaigns with Rivers state Treasury.

Amaechi wasn't a saint ,Wike isn't a saint either .One betrayed Rivers and Jonathan to support Buhari ,the latter betrayed Rivers and P.O to support Tinubu.

Same pattern of Greedy Rivers state Govenors!
Fighting for their political careers and betraying the state and our funds.

I pity people fighting and dying for this politicians.

Ameachi didn't play his game well from the time he lost the APC primary election..Tinubu even paid him a visit in his home to extend a hand of friendship after the loss, yet he didn't acknowledge him because he had plan B which was to support Atiku..Tinubu later found he could work with Wike a PDP man that could at least give him 25% votes which Wike did.As Tinubu is, he is not known to betray people that worked for him, hence his reason for keeping to the sides of his agreement with Wike and he hopes Wike delivers for him in 2027..

Mr Amaechi is defenestrated politically.

He is keeping low. That's his only choice until Mr Tinubu leaves office.

Nor can he go back to grievance-riven Pdp or join Labour party. No obvious political pathway for him right now.

Even after the current administration goes, I don't see a way back to the political heights he reached previously. Highly unlikely under APC because of the way he reacted after losing Apc primary, and his refusal to accept or acknowledge the President.

Things like that are not easily forgotten in politics. He is now inconsequential.
Dey play. He's cooking something underground. You'd hear from him and Elrufai when the time is ripe. That's an espo for you, by the way. He's not just quiet for nothing

Amaechi is lost in the political wilderness.. he can't fit into any political party where he's not the one throwing money and providing private jets for campaign in exchange for juicy positions 🤔

Amaechi is not a politician. He would remain silent in the political space of Rivers State bcoz he doesn't have any project in the state for his 7 yrs as Minister.

2ndly, he spent so much during the primary against Tinubu. He lost a lot of money. Unfortunately for him he doesn't know how to reconcile. Reconciliation is part of politics. I expect him to have done that when Tinubu visited him after the primary. He lost the opportunity for reconciliation thinking that Tinubu would die before the election proper.

Don't also forget that even when he was Minister, all his supporters like Chidi Lyoid and other hot guys have been bought over by Wike.

Recall also the removal of Dakuku from NIMASA which was direct from Presidency.

Amaechi is not a politician by Nigeria definition.

Just look at the Chess game Wike is playing in PDAPC. His legs are in the 2 parties and he's still a force to reckon with. You do away with him at your own risk.

Tinubu gave him FCT as a compensation for the confusion he created to reduce Atiku chances in the state. That's what politics is all about.

Does he know fubara before now? Does he have hands in his election as Gov. If anything join them it's temporary bcoz fubara wouldn't give him high respect. His real person is Wike they know what they have done together in the past.

Nyezom Wike the wicked one has humiliated Rotimi Amaechi several times. Check the results of the 2015 and 2019 Presidential elections for Rivers State, then you will know who is in charge

He had it coming alright. We warned him that APC is a satanic party but he was fighting Jonathan.

The chicken has come home to roost

He is a dead politician. He was doing everything to satisfy Buhari thinking the presidential Ticket will be given to him on a platter of Gold. Amaechi is a baby politician

Amaechi current passive stance is strategic and it is best for him. He can't frontally fight President Tinubu and he can't align with Odili, Secondus, Maeba, Sekibo, Austin Opara, etc who detest him politically. So, joining hands to form another political party is one option he can explore.

But one thing is certain, Wike influence in Rivers State is monstrous at the moment. The only thing is that being the chief accountant during Wike's tenure, Gov Fubara's hands may be tied to expose Wike's acts of looting as he might also be complicit directly or indirectly.
You are right . If Fugbara wants to expose Wike. He too will be exposed. Wike is a tactical politician. That's what we call we are in it together and we go down together.

Amaechi is non-align. His posture of neutrality should be subject of a research thesis in the John Kennedy school of politics.

He had the easy way out of throwing his support behind PBAT after the apc primaries, but he acted like a sore loser. His silence created a vacuum in Rivers state. Wike filled up that vacuum. It was a smart move by wike, knowing that nature abhors vacuum. Amaechi could have been enjoying wikes privileges and influence now, if he'd shown maturity in defeat and deployed his resources to support tinubu. After all, Tinubu didnt win 2023 because he won rivers state. Rivers state result was largely inconsequential.


Youre right. Amaechi is the biggest casualty in the south south.

Amaechi is on the fence
Observing proceedings...
Waiting to jump on the side that will butter his bread....
But for now, things are not looking favourable to him.
No benefits for him for now.

Ameachi should just remain silent. He is a chaise man, so he should remain a silent observer. If he misbehaves and they want to open his case file now, who would give him protection when he has fallen out with everybody. He is the second biggest fail in politics. Second only to Atiku "No disrespect".
He is never a chaise man,he the lion of UBIMA

Amaechi is cooking nothing. You don't who Tinubu is. Before they take one step would have already taken 100 ahead of them . Do you what it means to fight a sitting president and the cabal and defeated him
