Another huge joke from the thug, wikes camp.
No court order can stop the senate from doing what she is constitutionally empowered to do. That is their responsibility as recognised by the law of the land. So many precedence exists on this.
It's like u saying u have a court order asking the senate not to pass laws. The worst u can do is after doing what they are empowered to do from our law books, u can go ahead to test it ( law, decisions etc) in the law court.
Senate gonna do what the law asked them to do. Wike has failed again.
Senate, will receive it and junk it. Let wike sue the senate afterwards.

FRANKDUFF:
Why all this talk about wailing. If Amechi is innocent , let him prove himself

Kenai:
The Rivers Monorail has already arrived...

And it's about to take off...

Technical Consultants Advised Amaechi Against Monorail Project After Collecting N22bn

As the Judicial Commission of Inquiry set up by the Rivers State Government to probe the sale of valued assets of the state and other matters continued its sitting on Friday, the technical consultant to the state on the monorail project, Arcus Gibbs revealed that he advised former Governor Chibuike Amaechi against continuing with the project.

Managing Director of Arcus Gibbs Nig Ltd, Wiero Viguezang, however said his company gave the advice only after collecting N22.9bn from the Rivers State Government since its services were enlisted in March 1, 2010.

Viguezang spoke when he appeared before the commission to explain the role played by his company in the monorail project being probed by the commission.

While being cross-examined by counsel to the commission, Dr. Zaccheus Adangor, Viguezang, stated that the monorail project was no longer tenable considering the shortfall in the state’s revenue and the inability of its original technical and equity partners, TSI Nig Ltd, headed by the former military administrator of Rivers State, Brig-Gen Anthony Ukpo (Rtd.), to fulfil its obligations to contribute 80 per cent of its equity holdings.

He disclosed that the state owes his company N1.1bn for its services.
He also said the company had in a letter to the Rivers State through the ministry of transport, in April, made a six-point recommendation to the Rivers State on how to unbundle the monorail project in such a way that the state government can salvage some financial benefits out of the N33.9bn so far invested in the project. The monorail project was originally estimated to cost about Euros2250m.

The technical partner had in its sixth point of recommendation suggested to the Rivers State Government to unbundle the monorail project and approach the manufacturers of the mechanical components and rail tracks in Germany and exploit the possibility of reselling components at a lower price to the manufacturers.

He said the company also advised the state government to consider the option of using the monorail facilities for other commercially viable purposes, mentioning the spaces between pillars and surrounding areas of the monorail project, stressing that the area between Azikiwe Road and the UTC axis could be put into very fruitful commercial purpose.
Viguezang also told the commission that his company and the state government had planned to unveil the monorail project last April specifically to mislead the people of Rivers State into thinking that the project, which has gulped N33.9bn, was still on course.

He admitted that his company wrote a memo to the commissioner for transport to arrange the unveiling of the project essentially for media coverage since the project was “technically uncompleted”.

According to Viguezang, “We actually wrote to the ministry of transport in January, to arrange for the governor to unveil the monorail project in April for the attention and coverage of the media based on the expectation of the people of the state.”

When asked to clarify if the unveiling was to deceive the people of Rivers State into believing that the controversial monorail project was ready, Viguezang admitted; “It was to deceive the people into believing that the monorail project was at last ready”.

The managing director, however, stressed that “apart from the media coverage and public attention that it is expected to generate, the monorail was not technically and commercially ready. Only phase 1a within phase 1 of the project was ready. So, there was no way the public would have been able to use the monorail as at April when we asked the ministry of transport to unveil the project to the media”.

Viguezang admitted that the Rivers State government enlisted services of Arcus Gibbs at the cost of N600 million from March 1, 2010 to December 1, 2010, after the memorandum of understanding (MoU) with TSI collapsed because TSI could not raise revenue to fulfil the payment of its 80 per cent equity share capital.

He stated that part of its role as the technical service provider to the Rivers State government concerning the monorail project was to evaluate and assess the activities of TSI and give an independent opinion to the Rivers State government.

d fact dat d law empowered u 2 perform an act does nt preclude u 4rm following d due process. If dias non compliance with a process stipulated by law, Wike cn obtain an injunction ordering dem 2 perform or nt 2 perform an act. So it's nt an xpress rule

Chigold101:
well let me waste some few MBs to respond to you.

I'd it were as easy as you just wrote it, Amaechi would have been screened since two days agao. But it has been a tough one for him.

If he doesn't reach out to Wike's men, believe me he will be left stranded in the cold... Just watch

When they have done what the law asked them to do, if u feel they didnt follow due process in achieving the result such then u will be tested in a law court. A court can declare that a law passed is unconstitutional but not when they are working towards doing their constitutional duties. If after they have acted, u suspect non compliance then u go to court. U cant stop them from acting at all.

Why a Rivers State High Court and not a Federal High Court which has jurisdiction over the NASS?


Don't get me wrong, I was one of the Petitioners that wrote against Amaechi's Nomination but technically speaking, if i must approach the Court of Law to grant an Interlocutory Injunction against the NASS from insisting on going ahead with the screening in spite of my petition, then I should be advised to approach a FHC in Port Harcourt or Abuja.

alexlee50:
I no wan curse u this morning but if I do, u go think for generations to come.

Please go ahead, na ur seeds, born and unborn will carry the cross.

let me address the issues u raised."he is a thief because wike said so"was it wike that said amechi was a thief? Where u in nigeria when a panel of inquiry headed by a judge was set up to look into some of the finances of rivers state during amechi's regime and how it was managed?

Oo i see, the same omereji panel that has repeatedly been proven to be a fraudulent panel whose outcome was already known far before it commenced sitting.
This fraud of a panel has been well discussed on this forum and the conclusion is its a charade and nothing else. below is the clip of part of what transpired and the thread in question.

Was amechi not given the oppurtunity to defend himself? Did he come?

It would have been foolish for Amaechi to go to a charade. who has time for nonsense.

And who told u the rivers state goveenment is taking the matter to court?

u lack sense. i said Amaechi has taken the entire panel and report to court the basis of which the senate is stepping down from it.


Your statement to that effect displays your ignorance on the workings of a commission of enquiry.

u lack comprehension sense. go back and read what i wrote.


a report would be written and sent to the governor indicating these findings, a white paper would be, published and gazzetted.the rivers government would take amechi to court based on the recommendations of this panel.

What is Wike waiting for? he promised to implement immediately. its going to 2 weeks now, the fool hasnt. who is deceiving who?


as for amechi rushing to court, what did he rush to court for? Was it not to stop the panel from ssitting or inviting him.

His current presence in court is for the court to junk the entire report. case closed

ironically this is a man who shut the judiciary in his state for more than 1year, he is now rushing to the judiciary for soccur.

Hypocrite, both the action of the NJC and the state government led to the shutting down of the court. its only hypocritical fools who claims it was only as a result of amaechis actions while ignoring the role of NJC led by okorocha and his goons. Even if a man is alleged to kill a court, only the law court can claim he is innocent. Amaechi isnt an exception.


anyway I am not surprised by your attitude, typical of every APC sympathiser, making statements filled with half truths; sometimes outright lies and refusing to admit you made a mistake.

Fool, ffuck APC. dont give a damn about them. its u that has been fed with lies and u lack the ability to absord the plain truth even if its staring looking at u. shame.

seniorbros:
My brother, don't argue with these people whose hatred for Amaechi will not allow them learn.

shortgun:
You don't know what you are saying..
Even Federal Govt obey cut orders, no one or any institution is above the law.

dekdek:

Na wa oo. Someone went to court to secure an order against an institution from taking an action they are constitutionallly empowered to take and u are here telling us that he didn't sue instead he petitioned.
U sound confused.

kinibigdeal:
The political thug is lose again

Fool, loose with the bitter truth
I can live with that. How Egbin?

doublewisdom:
Amaechi how market?

lukxman:
And you just wet your trouser for mere criticism. You shall poo if he drops another "change ballastic"

dekdek:
abegi, go and talk with ur lawyer. u need to learn. cant keep repeating myself all over again.

Which APC Senator cleared Obanikoro before being appointed as a Minister? Thrassssssss...........

shortgun:
People do secure court orders/injunctions preventing police from arresting and prosecuting them.
Is the police not empowered by law to arrest and prosecute?

Chigold101:
Amaechi needs Wike now more than ever...

Because Buhari would not want to be associated with Amaechi at this point in time...

shortgun:
You are the one who really need to learn.
The National Assembly as an arm of Govt. doesnt have immunity so it can be prosecuted.

CharlesPhc:
We are looking at the Institution that the Court Order is intending to restrict here; the NASS as a National or Federal Institution and not of the State Organ. If a Rivers indigene is Suing a Federal Organ would it be proper to sue through a State High Court or a Federal High Court?

IbokUtoroh:
for clearance.
Bobo if u think amaechi will be cleared just like that, u r on a long thing.
So far the chairman of that ethical committee is a pdp man and rivers state senator is one of the members in the committee.
Amaechi is playing a silly god and he is so foolish in his thinking. Do u think fayemi just got comfirmation by pdp senators and fayose without meeting them?
Do u think fashola didnt meet with tinubu and clarify issues before he got cleared by those tinubu's senators?
Amaechi shud do the simple needful, go meet this people, its not bad playing the biblical nicodemus, once in a while u need to scratch one's back so urs too can be scratch. Make him dey form kingkong na, wetin consain me with a thief.
And lemme tell u d fact, amaechi will lose it and nigeria and buhari will still be. No jupiter can do otherwise.
Am a pdp and will always be civil.
