The same question millions of Nigerians have been asking. GEJ is like a father who does not know what is happening to member(s) of his household. Which means we were right to boot him out of office

I think Olisa Metu has just tore his bail bond papers. So he has many more days to spend in kirikiri

Am sure IBB had this dude in mind when he said that" the youths in Nigeria are not ready and ripe enough to take on mantle of leadership in this country". The statement he made in 2011 election campaign in Edo state when certain questions were asked by a media man about his ambition to be President again instead of allowing d youths. Let's stop defending the criminals in our midst. They are d reason why everything has gone from bad to worst in Nigeria with their mindless stealing of our common wealth.. If Buhari will kill all those involved in d massive stealing that took place in d administration to save the lives of million others so be it. I will support him one million times.

Everyday federal might federal might,na so una talk federal might for bayelsa wetin happen?

Bros, I know u will be d first to shout here if the result of d election had gone other way. By now ur tongue would have been wagging seriously in ur mouth accusing APC and Buhari of turning Nigeria into one party system. Now that Mr President has shown he is a true Democrat by allowing the peoples choice to prevail, it has also become something to gossip with by u. Maybe u stay and watch out other election that will be coming up soon in south- south how it will look like

I don't think u really understand Nigerian politics very well. Bayelsa as it is has little voting strength to be reckoned with. Bayelsa state voting strength is equal to the voting strength of my local govt alone in which Obio/Akpor in Rivers state. Every ruling party in Nigeria always make sure they have the d States with high voting strength on their side to ensure victory at d general election. For example, imagine how many states here in d south- south and south East that votes from Kano and Kaduna state cancelled out for GEJ during d last election? 3 million plus votes given to PMB during d last election cancelled more than 4 states here in south- south and South-East. Nigerian politics is different from typing and posting comments on NL ooo.

[color=#DC143C]Dakuku Peterside is politically weak. It was Amaechi that carried him along during the 2015 election. The election was more of an Amaechi vs. Wike tussle than Dakuku vs. Wike tussle. Now that Amaechi is a minister, Dakuku is finished. #Wikedeycomeback[/color]

U should have asked urself how politically active Wike would be without Mama piss, GEJ on seat, Gesila khan posited out of Rivers state, the police commissioner in Rivers state no longer taking orders from Wike and Mama piss, Militants being chased out and many gone into hiding. These and many other things are some of d things that give Wike edge during d last election. All these things are no longer in Wike's favour. So let's see how it plays out if d supreme finally cancel the election. Let's see if Wike has more political muscle than others in Rivers state. Not even in Lagos state would Tinubu and Fashola survived or retained APC in power should what happened in Rivers state during d last election happens there. We saw and witnessed heavy federal might in Rivers state. Raw and naked use of power. Apart from few, almost all APC leaders across d state were arrested and detained few days to election without justification.

We Rivers people already know d answer. Dakuku has what to point at. While Wike has none. Both Wike and Dakuku have all occupied different public positions at different times both here in Rivers state and d federal level. Dakuku was Amaechi's works commissioner in Rivers state during his first tenure. And we all agreed that majority of Amaechi's achievements in Rivers state were in his first tenure when d likes if Dakuku were there with him b4 d unusual distraction brought by Mama piss which later was highjacked by Wike to make Rivers state ungovernable for Amaechi and Rivers people. Even as a law maker, we watch d TV to see his contributions on d floor of d house. But for Wike, he was a local govt chairman for 8 years and built council Secretariat for 8 years. As a chief of staff to Amaechi, it was looting and acquiring choice properties all over Rivers state and Nigeria. As federal Education minister, university students sat at home for one full academic session without him doing anything instead, he chose to stay port Harcourt fight Amaechi day and night while future of Nigerian youths and university students are being wasted.

No be only white paper. Na black paper. Amaechi took the white paper abi na black paper to d senate to read during his ministerial screening. My former governor is very clean. PDP is just angry with Amaechi because of d role he played to boot them out of power.

Well, I appreciate ur little analysis on Rivers state re run election if there is going to be which I strongly believe it's going to take place soon. First, both d PDP and d APC have very strong presence in all d 23 LGAs in state. Both Amaechi and Wike are of Ikwerre descent. Amaechi is from Ikwerre LGA while Wike is from Obio/Akpor LGA which happens to be my own LGA too. Few things that will work against Wike if there is re run election are; 1, many Rivers indigenes of d state understands that Wike did highjacked power by destroying zoning in d state. As a result, those who feel its there turn will work against Wike as it has already started happening right now. If u truly listen to news in Rivers state, there are defections here and there from d PDP to APC. 2, Rivers state from time immemorial never play opposition to d govt at d center, even Wike himself said it during campaign that Rivers state don't play opposition. He urged Rivers people to vote d PDP with d believe that GEJ will win. And with still stand by that that Rivers state always align with d center at every given time.3, Nigerians and d world saw what happened in Rivers state during d last administration of GEJ and d election. Where federal might heavily falls on Rivers state to win at all cost. Similar thing will heavily visit Wike and d PDP in Rivers state. Since beginning of this 2016, there has been serious raids and arms recovery in all corners of d sstate which were brought in by many PDP stalwards and chieftains. The federal might has started befalling on Rivers state.

Wike has no business being in govt house in port Harcourt. This is a man Mr wike has been fighting since the days of GEJ as d President where he, Wike enjoyed all d federal and presidential backing yet, could not achieve anything against Amaechi. In all these, Amaechi has been overcoming Wike and his evil life. Is it not time Wike face governance and leave Amaechi alone?

Wike supervised 10 months ASUU strike as a minister of Education. Wike couldn't resolve d crisis because he was too busy in Rivers state fighting Amaechi day and night instead of seeing to d needs university students who have been at home for months. But just two weeks after wike resigned and Ibrahim Shakarau was appointed, d crisis was resolved and students went back to school till date.

Nnamdi kanu is understanding d difference btw talking on Radio and talking in prison. He can die. After all, he is not useful in any way

Truly, as a Rivers indigene, I don't think we have a Governor yet. Level of insecurity in Rivers state very high. No day passes in Rivers state without one news of kidnap, murder, cult clash or even attempted assassination. Omoku, Ahoada, Abua and many parts of d riverine side are all no go areas. Just yesterday in Buguma, combined team of security agents raided several homes where several ammunitions and several PVC cards were recovered in home of d caretaker chairman of Asari Toro LGA newly appointed by governor Wike. Almost all d current caretaker chairmen under Wike are either ex militants or active militant. The same thing goes to many House of Assembly members in Rivers state. More than 7 of them are militants. If not for both d election tribunal and d appeal court that sacked them.

Park well brother. The PDP was prepared yet couldn't do anything meaningful in their 16 years of reign for Nigerians other than looting, looting and stealing, stealing.

MrAnalyst:
I don't know where to start from. How can this man be this myopic in reasoning. How can he say Igbos can't make a country? The man even said it is only coal that is in the SE? How stu.pidd? For him to say Igbos want to "colonize" SS is a very daft summation and shouldn't be coming from a leader. This divide and rule can't work forever,people are getting smarter!

What Mr Waziri Ringim said is nothing new to us the south-south people. Stories and evidences abound about how the Igbos treated the south-south peoples b4, during and after d civil war. The problem of d Igbos is not different from d general problems of Nigeria. Keep doing d same thing over and over and expecting a good result. The never consulted us to seat and reach agreement b4 engaging in a war of secession against Nigeria. The same thing repeating itself like in d sixties. I have listened to Nnamdi Kanu on Radio Biafra here in port Harcourt some couple of times. I just looked at him like somebody who is living an elusive life. The Igbos should go ahead with Biafra and allow us be.

We the south- south know about this already. That's why the Igbos want the south- south to be part of their "Yeye Yeye" Biafran struggle by fire, by force. We rejected them in d sixties. And we are more than ready to do again. The two reasons why the Igbos want us the south south to be part of them is not for d sake of d Igbos liking or loving us more than the Hausa's or the Yoruba's. It is purely for economic reasons. The Igbos have little or no Oil resources. Again the Igbos have no assess to the seas and waterways to advance their commercial and importation business. Just check from Calabar straight to Edo and down to Ondo and Lagos States are all on the mouth of d Atlantic ocean which very good for Cargo business through d sea. But the Igbos have no such advantage here.

God forbid. In Ikwerre land and culture, anything that has to do with Biafra is completely not accepted. because the name Biafra is forbidden and a Taboo. That's why we refer to those Igbo's as "Ndi Isuoma"

The DSS should keep holding Nnamdi kanu for he is a criminal

Wike has just 2 persons to save him. Theyare, GEJ and Mama Piss. Both of them foisted Wike on us. Wike was never the peoples choice. What Wike is facing now is as a result of d heavy descendant of federal might on Rivers state during the last administration of GEJ. All to make sure they finished Rotimi Amaechi and his APC. Many APC supporters were brutally murdered, many were unlawfully arrested and detained for days without charging them for any offence. APC and other opposition parties in Rivers state were barred from operating and campaigning in many LGAs in Rivers state. Particularly Okirika and Ogba/ Egbema LGAs. People were shot at in different APC campaign including a police officer in Okirika. Wike must pay for his sins for sure.

We all listened and heard all the rubbish Nnamdi Kanu was saying on that radio station. I told many of my Igbos frnds here in port harcourt that if they like let them protest from now till tomorrow that Nnamdi Kanu won't be released easily because he committed a very serious crime against the Nigerian state by inciting the people against the govt and also raising funds for d purchase of arms to wage war against the state. The videos are everywhere on YouTube for all to watch. As saying this now, the real charge against Nnamdi Kanu has not been brought forward yet. After now, the charge will be brought against him which will still keep him longer in jail. So Nnamdi Kanu has many months to spend in prison custody. And as a Peace loving Nigerian, I want Nnamdi Kanu to remain in custody for now. He deserved to be killed. But I won't support killing him instead life jail will be ok for him

Pls we d south- south people are not with ur useless order. Nnamdi kanu should be killed without further waste of time

IPOB ndi ara. Lol.......

Nnamdi kanu must remain in jail till new year

Nnamdi Kanu will spend his Xmas in jail

Those of us from Rivers state and particularly those who luv our state, Rivers state are so happy and pleased with this. I don't think there is anywhere in d world where what happened in d last election in Rivers state will stand as an election. Federal might and power was heavily, I mean heavily descended on Rivers state because of one man called Rotimi chibuike Amaechi. GEJ and his wife made sure nothing was left of Amaechi and his party, the APC. They did it using Nyesom Wike. They never bothered about the rules, fairness, justice, or even the lives of Rivers people. Blood flowed on d street, roads, campaign grounds, the homes of their perceived political enemies etc. They did not mind that GEJ had lost his election, they still went ahead to do what they did. Patience Johnathan left Abuja to permanently stay in port Harcourt to deal with Amaechi and his supporters. But today, how far?

We dey here. Nothing dey happen. Sai Buhari! Sai Buhari!!

16 wasted years by d PDP.

OK ooooo

At least strong hands don touch Nnamdi kalu small. Next time he will conduct himself properly.

mrvitalis:
When wike came to my street in mile 2 Port Harcourt to campaign he said
.... Forget about me, make sure Jonathan wins cos when he dose.. . I go hold ameachi and dakuku. .. we will lock all the airport and seaports and I will flog them on the streets of Port Harcourt.. .
No who has the key to the airport and seaports?
Who may likely be arrested today?
Watch what u say when u have the advantage because u never know what can happen

Equally, when Wike also visited my ward in Obio/Akpor LGA in ward 13 to be precise, Wike said that Rivers state has never been in opposition to d govt at d center. That Rivers state cannot afford to be in opposition. But today, the same Wike want us to be in opposition. No way. Let the election be completely cancelled so we can have a better election and align our state to the center as it has always been.

We rejected Biafra in 1970 and cannot accept now just because GEJ election. Even GEJ himself can't support Biafra and we all know this. So let's stop deceiving ourselves with this Biafran thing

Lol..... Asari Dokubo has taken his threat to from entire Nigeria to Bayelsa state. U all remembered how Asari was threatening day and night what he will do if GEJ was not re elected for d second time. Many months gone Asari is yet to shoot an ordinary knockout. I thought by now the separatist protest of the Igbos would have been a child's play compared to what Asari would have done.
