Thought I'd see some salient points but all I see is a PDP supporter doing what they know how to do best: Deceiving people.

This is election that will be held in Rivers state and not APC primaries oga. And nobody is marginalised in Rivers state.

Remember Afonja? Relate him with Dakuku

In another news...

“Wike is aware that in a free and fair election in Rivers State, the APC gubernatorial candidate, Dr Dakuku Peterside, will beat him so mercilessly that he will lose his deposit,”- Eze Chukwuemeka Eze

What do you think about this? grin
We Rivers people know better. Wike cannot be supported to get back to power because the position he is occupying as a governor today belongs to Rivers southeast senatorial zone. There is rotation in Rivers state that was why after Odili, power was shifted to d Ikwerres. Even when Amaechi's "K Leg" saga occurred, another Ikwerre man in d person of Celestine Omehia was asked to replace Amaechi even when Omehia did not participate in d PDP primary as at d time. If had not been zoned to d Ikkwerres, late senator Martins yellow who came second would have asked to step in instead of Omehia who didn't bought form or participated in d primary. Let's not deceive ourselves Wike is a very greedy person by nature. Wike did this same thing when he was Obio/Akpor council chairman. Despite the cries and plea from other clans that made up Ohio/ Akpor LGA like Evo, Apara and Akpor kingdoms for the chairmanship position to continue rotating among the 3 kingdoms as it has been, Wike refused and brought his own kitchen brother, Timothy Nsirim to takeover from him which angered other clans. Wike's political life has been just like this. Even if Wike is allowed to continue, bet me Wike will finish and handover to another Ikwerre man or another Uplander.

TonyeBarcanista:
Rivers state is a multiethnic society but one thing that has kept us together in fairness, equity and unity of purpose. As the rerun election approaches, many riverians look forward to return Nyesom Wike to Government House as they did in April 11. Though I recognise that the good people of Rivers state will return Wike to power, this article is to lay support to the decision of Rivers people.

1. Riverine/Upland Agreement Has No Effect On Wike:
While it is true that since 1999, the upland has been occupying the number one seat of rivers state, it is also true to recognise that Nyesome Wike wouldn't have been the candidate of the riverine communities IF a riverine person had done what he did to challenge the madness of ex-governor Amaechi and his APC mad house. Wike was not the only minister from rivers state during Jonathan's era, he was however, the only one that stood his ground, defended Jonathan, an illustrious son of the Niger delta, got insulted and abused by the APC and their agents on Jonathan's behalf. Dakuku Peterside, though a riverine man is unfit to preach the riverine/upland agreement when he was the same person that vigorously campaigned against Jonathan for his parochial interest and made a fool of himself on March 28 to please his masters in Bourdillon road and Daura. It was Wike that stood by the Rivers people, it was Wike that stood by our brother Jonathan. So if we the riverine communities are to consider voting based on "sentiment", it is NYESOM Wike that fits the bill. Dakuku's master, Amaechi once declared that Jonathan, an Ijawman isn't his brother, Wike never denied the brotherhood between himself, an Ikwerre man and Jonathan. As a riverine, Dakuku is our blood brother, but he doesn't represent us.

2. Ikwerre Deserves The Position:
The spirit of Rivers state is one that promotes unity and give everyone a sense of belonging. It is fair that the Ikwerre nation, produce the Governor of the state since the Senator representing Rivers East, George Sekibo is a riverine man from Okrika. It is only fair and deserving that the Ikwerre nation produce the Governor. Rivers state is known for fairness. We gave mandate to Peter Odili, an Ndoni man in 1999 and 2003 not considering the minority population. In 2007 we shifted the mandate to Celestine Omehia/Rotimi Amaechi, not minding the fact that he's an uplander. In 2011 we returned Amaechi to power because we believe that the Ikwerres deserve an unbreakable 8years in office. In April 11, we dumped Peterside but queued behind Wike despite his Ikwerre root because we saw the spirit of Rivers in him. It is time to once again tell the Ikwerres that their son is indeed worthy of the mandate that the court erroneously voided. Upland or Riverine, Rivers is not divided.

3. Like Abiye Sekibo, Like Dakuku Peterside:
To those that may not know, Sekibo is an Ijawman from Okrika. Despite being an Ijaw son, his kinsmen(we) have vowed never to thumb-print for him in ANY election. In fact, it is safe to state that it is easier for the son of the Sultan of Sokoto to be elected Chairman of Okrika Local government than for Sekibo, a son of the soil. The reason is simple, Sekibo as SSG and Minister (under Obj) pioneered cultism and never brought development in the state. He brought riverine sentiment against Amaechi in 2011 as ACN candidate but was highly defeated in the riverine region(and the entire state)

On Peterside, he positioned himself as an enemy of Niger delta, Rivers state and the riverine people by his disgraceful drama during the Presidential election. He led his thugs to demonstrate against the will of the people when they thump-printed for Jonathan. Peterside has positioned himself to be seen as one that seeks to please his external masters. He's a puppet that is best suited for an appointment as PA to his master Rotimi Amaechi.

4. APC Government In Rivers State Was Disaster:
While the PDP government of Rotimi Amaechi that lasted between 2007 and 2012 was one of the best in the history of the state, the APC government of Amaechi that lasted between 2013 and sent parking in May 2015 was the WORST government ever in Rivers state. It was the APC government led by Amaechi that shut down the courts and state house of assembly, and also put the state in comatose. Amaechi's APC government refused to pay salaries for 3months and failed to appoint Chief judge of the state. Wike led PDP government came on-board and reversed the madness. Amaechi's APC government that we have thrown into the dust bin of history is Dakuku personified.

I believe in the true spirit and determination of rivers state to seal up the dust-bin that APC belongs. Our state can not be led by one that is not for us.

Then you are more foolish than I ever thought. Anyways, this is just your own opinion. I will personally lend my effort when the time comes. I will spend my resources, our people need emancipation from Ijaw slavery. It is high time we begin to think for ourselves. If some of our people stick need a nudge even after GEJ declared PDP an Ijaw party then it is very clear the Igbos need to start charting a course that will only favor themselves.

It seemed that Wike would have won the election with the hatred for Amechi/APC in the SS at all time high during the election.

Why he had to resort to thuggery beats every rational mind. Some people like to shoot themselves on the feet.

Now with APC in control at the center and Nigerians' penchant for switching allegiance to the party in power, it will be a gargantuan task for Wike to come out ahead.

Can Tonyebarcanista just give up? Every Rivers indigene knew it was impossible for Wike from Ikwerre to succeed Amaechi. All those supporting him in all these misrepresentation of reality need to come to terms with reality like I always do.

Read this news where Asari made it clear that only imposition could make Wike Governor and everybody in Rivers State knows there was no election in April.

Asari Dokubo Dares Patience
Jonathan: You Can’t Make
Wike Rivers Governor
sola adebayo
— Apr 11, 2014 3:18 am | 56 Comments
The next governor of Rivers State will not be
determined by First Lady Patience
Jonathan, according to leader of outlawed
Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force Alhaji
Mujahedeen Asari Dokubo.
An attempt to make supervising minister of
education Mr Nyesom Wike the next
governor of the state, Dokubo warned,
would not only affect the political fortune of
President Goodluck Jonathan but also the
chances of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) in the state.
He said the plan by the first lady to impose
Wike on the people was morally wrong in
the light of the dominance of the political
landscape of the state by the Ikwerre group,
to which Wike belongs, in the past 16 years.
“To make Wike a governor in Rivers State in
2015 is not morally right. All the fellows
endorsing him for whatever reason should
know that it will injure PDP, it will injure
Goodluck Jonathan. If Goodluck’s name is
brought into it, that he is in support of the
perpetuation of an Ikwerre hegemony in
Rivers State, which is not right by
population, which is not right under any
calculation, it will injure him and PDP,”
Dokubo stated in an exclusive interview
with LEADERSHIP friday yesterday.
Lol! So you now care about what Asari says and stands for. Lol!
