I was laffin wen I first saw the crowd.. NTA stopped the live transmission claiming to move on to the next boring program... Suspecting power control tho.

Danjunior:

GenBuhari:
May your personal life and finances progress in the same manner Nigeria progressed under Thief Obasanjo's reign. Can I hear you say AMEN! ?

a minute silent for d soul of pdp to rest in peace

Osezzua:
I beg to disagree with u my brother. Obj only concluded a process Abacha's regime started - talking about GSM. Also, u have to remember, we have 2 different personalities here. Obj is one and Gej another. To this end there must b glaring differences between these two. Gej isn't a war time president, n wether u like it or not Nigeria has been at civil war since d days of Obj against Niger Delta militants n now with Boko Haram, if u doubt me check our security budget n u will discover Nigeria currently spends over 60% of her national budget on security. Amaechi n co have treated the office of d president with so much disrespect n profanity. This has to STOP. Fashola doesn't address d presidency that way. If u feel u are popular, pick a form and vie for d post. Remember, the heretic of an age, is usually the Saint of d other. Rather than focus on what Gej has not done, why don't we concentrate on the positive things he has done? things like revitalisation of our railways, addition of 6 federal universities, stabilisation of crude oil production, construction of roads, privatisation of power sector to increase productivity, introduction of Almajiri schools, completion of several power projects, etc. I know we still have a long way to go, but at least we are still moving. I'm not a politician, I don't support any party also, but I know that our leaders ought to b respected by us all if we all want to b respected outside. This is my take.

This rally took place today 25th October 2014. With this kind of crowd I saw here today, PDP in Rivers state is in for a serious battle.

kolomax:

Gov. Chuibike Amaechi's Youth Empowerment -
By Steven L. Jaja
65, 000 youths turned up for the APC mega rally
in Port Harcourt and were paid N3, 500 each. My
cousin collected too. Do the multiplication.
Amaechi is still owing 2012 Corp members their
allowee.
Amaechi is yet to pay the 13, 000 teachers he
hired their salaries after many months of working
for the state.
Amaechi is now the ATM of APC.
My state is bleeding courtesy of Amaechi but he
won't go unpunished
Fellow Nigerians, if PDP or APC organizes and pay
you, pls happily collect it and vote for your
conscience during the election.

FastShipping:
Who paid you? If you actually accepted 2,000 naira, then you are a corrupt man.

I 100% doubt anyone paid you.

Abagworo:
If free and fair election is allowed in Rivers State, APC will win by a wide margin. 90% of PDP followers in Rivers State are doing so out of fear and threat.

bashydemy:
Guy forget about those that destroy APC sign posts they are paid by PDP to do that and they are not upto 2000 and the electorate are millions. You know how they destroy Aregbe sing post? what happen at last..

Abagworo:
I'm grass roots as far as Rivers State is concerned and completely on ground at least in Obio/Akpor, Ikwerre and Etche LGAs. Even in Oroazi/Rumueme/Rumuepirikom which is Nyesom Wike's enclave, people are following GDI/PDP out of fear or threat. Even some Ikwerre youths organisations are supporting Jonathan out of fear and threat. I'm neutral for example but most times I act like I support Jonathan just to survive the threats but I won't vote him except on gunpoint.

shizzleStar:
you are a very big FOOL! At least 5 persons have confirmed here that they were paid N2000 by amaechi at the rally and you and you fellow janjawiiids all asked for pictures as evidence.

Ok now can we have pictures as per the bolded?

kenex4ever:
Bros abeg no dey insult people, just say what u want to say. We no APC is dead on arrival, and even amaechi knows this, the worst decision of his life is d day he left the ruling party.

You and your likes are the problems of nigeria. That is why when i hear trash spewd out in form of words from your like minds, i clamour that we should break the country.. i have no problem with anybody who handles the mantle of leadership and their ethnic region. Where i have a problem is when such persons fail to deliver on good leadership and goveranance. It doesnt matter if a yoruba man rules for 20years. What matters is if his tenure positively affected the lives of citizens for good.. now people like you are biased in your thinking and base your decisions on mere facts that because somebody comes from your region and he is messing and heating the polity up, he should still remain there? fr the single fact that you can say trash like this, its safe to say there is no hope comimg soon for the development of Nigeria.. i pity the future of this country based on your doltic mentality

robosky02:
the new stadium looks like cut and nail

it cant be compared to akwa ibom stadium haba

redcliff:
To say only 10k people were at that rally is an insult to the pictures you saw.. even in a full capacity stadium, the least amount of people you would see is 65k. Just on the seats. Now, both seats and the field was filled. Recalculate. Nothing less than 70k people were here.. doesnt this picture look similar to the immigration exams where over 1m youths attended? Be careful.

Bugatie:
Even if you say a 100k people were at the rally I won't argue that, but what I can assure you is that more than half of the crowd were rented!
Now on performance, Amaechi has not delivered as much to warrant the noise he and his supporters make everywhere.
Salaries of civil servants in the state is in arrears, the few road projects in the state are on stand still because of lack of funds.
Most of the towns in the state has not seen any significant govt attention just because they did not give the governor a block vote during the last election, Elelenwo is an example.
The abandoned mono rail project is only a conduit to siphon state funds, otherwise why conceive a rail project that goes no where, a distance that's less than 5minutes walk?
Let no one mention dwindling federal allocation because we know how much the state gets both from allocation and IGR.
Match this with what we have on ground and you will see why the governor and his cronies must think twice before they call Jonathan.
Yes he built schools, but those were contracts for political settlement of which he confessed that some politicians embezzled and each of them were awarded for more than 200m!
I have no problem with the governor, but I have problem with a man who loses every sense of decorum each time he touches the microphone
