Believe me, as i dont like you in particular, if i set up a penel even if its your fathers house, i must find you guilty.. tongue grin

You know this & you are still talking to these people...

One of the worst endeavours to undertake is to try to reason with with emotionally immature people who also happen to have an axe to grind on a subject matter...

Leave them be, you can't win this argument, they will beat down with their repressed anger & bitterness..

If Wike truly has a "watertight case" built, EFCC would have lighted fire on Amaechi's ass & hell would have fallen on him by now...

All he is hoping for is to cast enough doubt on his integrity to turn public sympathy away from him..

So far, he is only succeeding online with tribal bigots..

Why must i ask Bode George and Ibori..why not i ask Odili or the pardoned Alamieyesiegha.

He isn't answering to Wike his boy..Wike is his boy..Maybe i shud repeat it again, Wike no reach..This present RVSG is made up of PEJs jokers and clowns..Anytime a serious leader becomes governor, he can send for Amaechi.

And See the way you mention jail like you work in a jailhouse..alright, go and hijack Amaechi and lock him in your jail.
To you it is about Wike, to rivers people it is about RVSG on behalf of Rivers people against Amaechi. With time he will be brought to justice.

Talking about Alamesiegha pardon, Alams was pardoned by the State (National Council of State) and NOT the President. He wasn't given the presidential prerogative of mercy but STATE pardon. The National Council of State, consists of ALL 36 Govs, ALL fmr Presidents and Heads of State, the Chief Justice of Nigeria, the Senate President and Speaker of the House. The President Chair the body while the Vice President is Deputy Chair. All members present at that infamous meeting (including APC Govs) endorsed the pardon. The President only acted on the endorsement.

You have learnt something this day sir!

Why are you lying? NO time did GEJ ever said Alams travail was political. GEJ through Ruben Abati only said Alams has been punished and the Council found him to have repented. Gowon was in fact the first to defend the decision of the Council.

The State, not the President pardoned Alamesiegha. I have educated you on that. All members of the Council were responsible!

Am sure despite all the allegations no evidence has been brought to Mr President. Damn them all! They expect Mr President to make decisions based on rumours, hearsay, or things in the media space, or break under pressure? No way.
Carry on Presido you are the right President for a time like this.

In your opinion, was Alams corrupt, did he misappropriate state funds or not..

And should state pardon be given to "repented" criminals..

What double standard? Is Buhari the Judge that washes away sins? Which country will take Nigeria serious if we adopt this so-called practice? Did Amaechi allegedly stole Buhari's personal money or Rivers money? If he need forgiveness, he should appear before Rivers people and ask for one. Return whatever he stole and plead guilty before the judge,

Should Amaechi be cleared as minister of the federal republic of Nigeria? Just like the 8th Senate did for Saraki, Buhari's decision to nominate Amaechi was influenced by political consideration without regard for his integrity/antecedent.

Buhari Elevates Politics Over Principle:
While I recognise the prerogative of President Buhari to appoint men and women that he considers worthy enough to form his cabinet, I beg to ask whether the President was in a trance when he pledged to appoint only people of credible character when elected. His recent nomination of messrs Rotimi Amaechi and Raji Fashola betrays his pre-electoral position on appointing "only" credible characters into his administration. Though Amaechi and Fashola are yet to be charged before a court nor convicted, morality demands that they be allowed to FIRST clear all allegations against them either through being certified 'Innocent' by the investigators or through the courts(if they are indeed innocent) before given new political responsibilities. Buhari's nomination of these men (and others) despite the allegations against them is a testament that he upholds politics over principle.

Who Is The 8th Senate Trying To Impress?
I burst into laughter when Senate spokesman Otunba Dino Malaye was reading out conditions for screening. I laughed more when he mentioned 'Asset Declaration' and 'thorough scrutiny'. What does the 8th Senate want to do with the asset declaration of ministerian nominees when they (senators) are yet to publicly declare there own asset before the public?

SEC 149. A Minister of the Government of the Federation shall not enter upon the duties of his office, unless he has declared his assets and liabilities as prescribed in this Constitution and has subsequently taken and subscribed the Oath of Allegiance and the oath of office for the due execution of the duties of his office prescribed in the Seventh Schedule to this Constitution.


Are they not the same people that are led by a man that is currently undergoing criminal trial before the Code of Conduct Tribunal for declaring false asset before CCB? What thorough scrutiny will the 8th Senate subject the ministerial nominees to when only two weeks ago they passed vote of confidence on a man that is undergoing criminal trial? What question will SP Saraki ask would-be ministers? What moral legitimacy does the 8th Senate have to reject a nominee on account of alleged corruption when only recently they passed vote of confidence on their President that is an alleged criminal? Who are they trying to impress?

They are all Rogues, both the nominees and those screening them.

Just like dunkem21and livingdiamond had expressed. a worker is worthy of his wages and you just have to bend some rules in politics. Tonyebarcanista this is politics , in as much that baba had made a mistake with the clamouring of Mr integrity he came with. Now he's now on the hot seat and trying to bend his own rules (not our rules) because he was the one spreading the integrity gospel. barcanista you are from rivers state I guess. Amaechi is not s saint quit alright but I bet if Amaechi is not compensated, Buhari will receive more than what GEJ got from Amaechi. all Buhari is doing is just obeying the law of compensation. Amaechi is not that loyal. He supported APC because of his interest.

Kudos To Senator Sekibo But...:
My position on Amaechi is very clear, he's morally unfit to represent Rivers state in the Federal Executive Council until he is cleared of all allegations against him. I sincerely commend my very own senator, George Sekibo for submitting petitions to the Senate on behalf of the ever loving people of Rivers state. But I have to admit that I don't see the petition scaling through for two reasons; One, the President is well aware of these allegations but he has shown that he doesn't care; Two, the 8th Senate is led by an alleged corrupt official that is presently under trial before a tribunal. There is the burden of moral legitimacy hanging on their neck. However, Amaechi's confirmation or otherwise cannot invalidate the allegations against him.

Nigerians Must Decide Where They Stand:
Nigerians are a special set of people. The people that went on protest in solidarity of Tinubu when he was being tried before the CCT, are the same group that were mocking a certain group that were protesting and showing Solidarity for the alleged corrupt Bukola Saraki. The group of people that were insisting that Saraki should not be tried for corruption is the same group that is crying that Amaechi and co should not be cleared due to the corruption allegation on their neck. The group that was calling for the head of Princess Oduah when she spent N260million on TWO cars in 2013 is the same group that defended Fashola for spending N78million on personal website. The group that defended Oduah then is the same group that has been calling for Fashola's head. Are both groups not confused and contradicting themselves? Is it proper to support misconduct when it suits us and oppose same when it doesn't? It is time for us as a people to define what we want and what we stand for.

Finally, by nominating Rotimi Amaechi and other people of questionable characters to serve as ministers of his government, President Buhari has betrayed the public confidence that was reposed on him on March 28. Like his predecessors, he has shown that he is ever ready to 'suspend' his principles in order to reward political allies. Indeed, President Muhammadu Buhari belongs to some people, he doesn't belong to everybody.
