Question:

How did PEJ gave us change?

Answer:

By disrespecting and fighting her husband's brother -Ameachi, who doubled as the Governor of Rivers state and Chairman, Governor's forum.

We all remembered how PEJ at an event in Okrika, Rivers state ridiculed Amaechi. We know how Ameachi was later suspended from PDP and so on.


Ameachi The Coup Plotter

With all these injustices going on, Amaechi and his ally in PDP formed what they called the 'New PDP'. Tinubu (APC leader)sensed an opportunity and took it with both hands by forming a merger with Buhari(CPC leader).

Finally in November 2013, Amaechi and five PDP governors defected to the newly formed APC. The first set of PDP governors that defected to the APC were Mr. Chibuike Amaechi (Rivers), Alhaji Ahmed Abdulfatah(Kwara), Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso(Kano), Alhaji Murtala Nyako (Adamawa), and Alhaji Aliyu Wamakko (Sokoto). Many more PDP governors later followed suit and that marked the beginning of the end of GEJ's administration.
The rest as they say is HISTORY.

As we look forward to May 29th, I keep asking myself these questions:
What if PEJ didn't fight Amaechi? What if GEJ appease Amaechi or prevent his wife from disrespecting an elected governor of one of the powerful states in Nigeria? What if Amaechi wasn't Chairman of Governor's forum? What if Amaechi and his group didn't form 'New PDP'(I believed this was what triggered the master political strategist Tinubu to quickly form a merger with CPC in other to win the big PDP fishes like Amaechi, Wammakko, Kwankwaso,OBJ (though not in the open)etc?

I can only thank God for using PEJ as one of the stones in the bag of APC(David) that destroys Goliath (PDP) the enemy of progress.

If Amaechi was in the military, by now, he'll be a Major General and the Chief of Army Staff(COAS), at least.

God is not man, and his ways ain't as ours.

I said it earlier that GEJ's problems are with his wife and d scoundrels that surround him. It's so unfortunate, but we all have to look ahead and hope for the better.

Tho u are right to some extent....to me, people voted for Buhari irrespective of party he belong to...most people are tired of GEJ cos of so many things hanging on his head.

The JUDAS of Ubiman in chief aka abdulameachi is a ragtag traitor of ten year standing. At the appropriate time, he will get what he deserves.
Karma will always catch up with everyone.
Why did he snatch people plots of land, destroyed houses in the name of building modern school without seeking the peoples approval?
He is a goat. A traitor. A thief. Foolish enough to assume he can ever get hausafulani support when he will badly need it to win election.

I agreed with you 100%. However, things could have been different if people like OBJ, Amaechi and all other PDP governors, Senators, House of Reps strong party members all remained in the party. And PEJ of course. Imagine if he had sacked the Petroleum minister, Diezieni?
