"THE ERRORS OF AMAECHI, THE WEAPONS OF HIS ENEMIES

Whatever once the power to float your boat can still rock your world. Today's friends can become tomorrow's enemies. The ones who once put an hedge around you to protect you from danger can also break the hedge and push you to the edge of the cliff, where you either stutter of you fly like the eaglet. Often times, those who engage in extreme morality are prone to attacks and eventual fall, just as a mango tree with ripened fruits are bound to attract the stones and sticks of a desperate eater. It's no longer news that the former Governor of Rivers State and the 'strongman' of the opposition PDP now a pillar in the APC hall of fame, Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi is the most trending politician in Nigeria today. He adorns the popular ad of one of the GSM providers, ".....#whereveryougo".

From the North to the South, East to the West, the only thing you get to hear as much as football, is "Amaechi".
This two time Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly and a two time Governor of the State seems to be in the eye of the storm though he is the most sought after politician East of the Niger. Amaechi is currently facing a hard time in the muddy political rivers of his state as the current government in his state headed by Nyesom Wike, his former man Friday and Chief of Staff is on a vendetta mission to not only cripple him politically but to ensure that he adorns the prisoner's clothes.

The PDP government of Wike is standing on the threshold as it faces judicial litmus test over its scandalous victory at the Election Petition Tribunal. Bound by the cloak of fear of losing at the tribunal coupled with Amaechi as a Minister under the APC led Federal Government of Buhari are the ultimate triggers of the orchestrated onslaught and desperate campaign of calling against the man who is now addressed as "the General of the Common sense Revolution" that shook the foundation of Aso Rock and brought the 16-year old reign of the PDP government to a dismal and unexpected end. No right thinking politician worth his salt would fold his hands and watch such a man assume a powerful position again, considering his roles as a two time Chairman of the Nigerian Conference of Speakers and Legislators and a two time Chairman, Nigetian Governors' Forum. Wike understands the true colour of Abuja power or what many call federal might. Therefore, he must fight albeit dirty to ensure that Amaechi does not come close to that position. He has this employed all arsenals at his disposal to achieve this goal. Though his traducers are mostly those he had shown exceptional magnanimity, Amaechi's ordeal stems from his errors while in power. He had the opportunity of playing out the scripts as laid out in the 48 Laws of Power.

The former Governor and pillar of support of President Buhari had enormous power at his disposal but he failed to employ that power to his detriment. The things he failed to do are the things his political enemies are doing today. In 2007, when he came to power through a landmark judgement of the Supreme Court, he should have weilded the big stick against those who fought against his candidature and mandate. Amaechi's Chief political adviser cum Chief of Staff, Nyesom Wike has urged him to implement the report of the Justice Kayode Eso panel of the Truth and Reconciliation Panel which had indicted former Governor Peter Odili and former SSG, Abiye Sekibo among others. But the ex governor would not yield to such pressure as he repeatedly said on the day he received the report at the Banquet hall inside the Government House, "today happens to be the saddest day of my life..." Amaechi was said because his political mentor and former boss, Dr. Peter Odili was 'indicted' by the panel which had recommended his prosecution. Many had believed he was pretending to be sad since he had been badly bruised by those indicted. But that was not to be as Amaechi practically refused to implement the report of the panel. He had hoped that his reason for setting up the panel which was for the purpose of reconciling Rivers people after a turbulent era of communal clashes, militancy and kidnapping, youth restiveness and the gruesome murder of two prominent sons of the State, Marshall Harry and A.K. Dikibo of blessed memory. On the contrary, Wike wanted their prosecutions. He chose the option of a white paper and a gazette of this report. At least, that would have helped to perpetually keep these powerful politician enemies in the dustbin of political relevance! No, Amaechi would not hard to any such advice. He couldn't for the same of his political father, Odili. Not even an attempt was made to stop Odili from securing an injunction against the State Government. Even when he succeeded, Amaechi failed to assemble his legal team to vacate the order through the Appeal Court.

Today, those he set free are part of the grand design to indict him through a White paper, ostensibly to put him behind bars. Chaii! !!! Amaechi failed to stiffle his enemies of funds. Rather, he brought back those who had erred and offered them the olive branch. He didn't stop there as he granted them more financial autonomy through Contract awards. When he had the opportunity of letting the EFCC send Wike to prison for alleged financial fraud less than one year of his administration, Amaechi mobilised Rivers youths to stop the Crime Commission from flouting a Court order procured by Odili which restrains the Commission from arresting, investigating and prosecuting any official of the Rivers State Government. Again, Amaechi failed to divest the shares of the Rivers State Government from AIT, a larger chunk of money invested in the then ailing television house.

There was enormous pressure by the then Chief of Staff and today Governor as well as his lawyers and exco members to either withdraw the State funds from AIT or change the Rivers Reps in the Board of Directors namely Emma Okah, Toru Ofili and Sheddrach Akolokwu. But he refused on the grounds that it would seem as a vendetta against the trio who never supported him and still do not support him till date. Haha! Amaechi!!! He allowed the same TV station that worked against his interest even as governor to operate with funds from his government. Today, AIT leads the pack of the section of the media running hate documentaries against him. He was deceived by Raymond Dokpesi's pretentious reconciliatory approach. Amaechi had the opportunity of allowing Felix Obuah, the State PDP Chairman to die when he was shot by assassins who left him half dead with bullets shattering his lower body. He quickly ordered that Obuah be flown to South Africa on an Air Ambulance for medical treatment with an initial approval of the sun of N10m. Despite the fact that Obuah a.k.a. Go round had abandoned him after the K-leg to publicly pledge his support for Celestine Omehia, Amaechi's rival. When it was time to stop Senator George Sekibo as a second time Senator in 2011, Rotimi Amaechi misfired. He conceded to the pressure from First Lady Patience Jonathan to allow Sekibo her kinsman and pointsman, a second chance. Amaechi 's ally, Andrew Uchendu desires to replace Sekibo but he was stopped by the governor. Wike also wanted the seat at the upper chamber, but Amaechi prevailed on him to abandon the pursuit of the same seat. A big error! Today, the same Sekibo whom he graciously supported against the wish of most of his supporters and the constituents of Rivers East senatorial zone, is the devil's advocate in a bid to stop Amaechi's ministerial confirmation by the Senate. He has duplicated and circulated CDs and DVDs purporting the alleged financial sins of Amaechi. The ex governor had the singular opportunity of wittling down the cancerous rising profile of Wike and 90 per cent of his accomplices in the race to pull down Amaechi, but he chose to let them be.

The likes of Ken Chikere, Boma Charles Nsiegbe, Betty Apiafi and most of the petition writing lawmakers cannot forget so soon how their political relevance today took its roots from Amaechi. When he should have set up panel of inquiries to investigate and probably arrange a kangaroo indictment and prosecution of some former Local Government Chairmen and Commissioners who served under him, Amaechi set them free to hound him today. The exact things he failex to do are the same things his enemies are employing to detail him. His errors of yesterday have eventually become the weapons of his enemies against him. May this affliction never rise a second time!"

SARAKI: God forbid! I will talk to Osibanjo, he's more gentle than Buhari!

barcanista:
Since I was born, I have never witness the kind of hypocrisy, double standard and demonisation that is currently perpetrated by Muhammadu Buhari, the APC, Alhaji Sanusi, Osinbajo and their "good governance crusaders" against the person of President Goodluck Jonathan, Allison Madekwe, and other government officials.

Alhajis Buhari and Sanusi and APC have been going about using every platform to talk about a "missing $20b", cheered by their hypocritical followers that pride themselves as good governance crusaders. They have deliberately gone blind over the fraud of CBN under Sanusi as outlined by the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria report in February 2014.

Sanusi Indicted And Removed For Fraud
According to the report (see below) Sanusi was indicted for Gross Misconduct that bothers on fraud and financial recklessness among other offence. The FRCN subsequently advised Mr President to remove Lamido Sanusi from office for further investigation and probe after the explanation of Sanusi appeared more like a tale and outrightly illogical according to FRCN. The council indicates that the explanation provided by Sanusi is “a clear display of incompetence, nonchalance, fraud, wastefulness, and abuse of due process and deliberate efforts to misrepresent facts on the part of the leadership of the CBN.”

The council advised the President to exercise the powers conferred on him by Section 11(2)(f) of the CBN Act 2007 or invoke Section 11(2)(c) of the said Act “and cause the governor and the deputy governors to cease from holding office in the CBN.”


April 2014: VP-elect Yemi Osibanjo Filed Case To Stop Sanusi Probe
Rather than Sanusi to prove his innocence in court, he filed a case in Federal High Court, Lagos to STOP FRCN and Other Security Agencies from investigating and prosecuting him through three Senior Advocates of Nigeria, Prof. Yemi Osibanjo, Dr. Kanyinsola Ajayi and Kola Awodien.
http://www.theguardianmobile.com/readNewsItem1.php?nid=24587

13 May 2014: Lagos Judge Tshoho Grants Sanusi Prayers
High Court Judge John Tshoho rather than uphold the constitutional powers of FRCN to investigate probe Sanusi, he granted the prayers of Lamido Sanusi and BARRED FRCN from further investigation or probing Sanusi Lamido Sanusi. In his own words...
“Prejudice is very pronounced in the language of that document. The language of the briefing note (transmitted by the FRCN to the presidency) conveys a sense of the defendant desperately goading the presidency to deal with the plaintiff,”
“The plaintiff submitting himself for investigation (by FRCN) is like the cockroach finding itself in the midst of fowls. Such a cockroach cannot be innocent,”.
http://www.tv360nigeria.com/?p=11923

Despite the fact the President Jonathan commissioned PWC to audit NNPC books to ascertain the veracity or otherwise of Sanusi's claim, Buhari, APC, Sanusi and their online agents that parade themselves as good governance and anticorruption apostles have been crying blue murder but refused to comment on the FRCN report nor the APC's VP elect role in shielding Sanusi for probe.

April 26, 2015: Buhari's Display of Hypocrisy
In his usual hypocrisy, General Buahri vowed to re-visit the $20b allegation but said NOTHING about the FRCN report. In his own word... “Imagine a situation where the former CBN governor who by God ‘s grace would later become the  Emir of Kano raised an  issue of missing billions of money, not in Naira but in Dollars, $20 billion.
“What happened, instead of investigating to know whether it was true that the money was missing or not, they simply found a reason to remove him. So these are the issues we are talking about…"
Contrary to the lies of Alhaji Buhari, Sanusi wasn't removed because he raised alarm, he was removed because he was indicted by FRCN. Jonathan also never kept mute, he commissioned PWC to audit the books. Buhari was also blind to talk about prosecuting Sanusi for the CBN fraud. Perhaps the Emir is as "incorruptible" as him(Buhari)

[size=14pt]The FRCN’s report on Sanusi[/size]



[img]https://www.nairaland.com/download/660265[/img]



The decision to suspend the Central Bank of Nigeria Governor, Sanusi Lamido was based on a report of the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria dated June 7, 2013.

The report was made after a review of Sanusi’s response to the query issued to him by the President over the apex bank’s financial statement of 2012. His response was dated May 20, 2013.

According to a copy of the report obtained by our correspondent on Thursday, the council indicates that the explanation provided by the suspended CBN governor is “a clear display of incompetence, nonchalance, fraud, wastefulness, and abuse of due process and deliberate efforts to misrepresent facts on the part of the leadership of the CBN.”

The council advised the President to exercise the powers conferred on him by Section 11(2)(f) of the CBN Act 2007 or invoke Section 11(2)(c) of the said Act “and cause the governor and the deputy governors to cease from holding office in the CBN.”

The report read: The particulars of the infractions against Sanusi are:

Persistent refusal and/or negligence to comply with the Public Procurement Act in the procurement practices of the Central Bank of Nigeria.

(A) By virtue of Section 15 (1)(a) of the Public Procurement Act, the provisions of the Act are expected to comply to ‘all procurement of goods, works and services carried out by the Federal Government of Nigeria and all procurement entities.’ This definition clearly includes the Central Bank of Nigeria.

(B) It is however regrettable that the Central Bank of Nigeria, under his leadership, has refused and/or neglected to comply with the provisions of the Public Procurement Act (PPA). You will recall that one of the primary reasons for the enactment of the PPA was the need to promote transparency, competitiveness, cost of effectiveness and professionalism in the public sector procurement system.
