After being rendered politically useless in the rivers state politics by Nyesom Wike in the just concluded presidential and guber elections in rivers state, the disgraced outgoing governor of rivers state mr Amaechi has been forced to begin packing his belongings for his upcoming journey to Abuja to join other political office seekers knocking on Buharis door for positions.

Amaechi is about to port to Abuja where he will be given lesson 101 in Abuja politics which is quite different from what he is was used to rivers state where he was lord and master.

In Abuja he will be under authority of higher boss and will fight for relevance among many contending factors and persons.

what is unclear is how a person of Amaechi's bossy and dictatorial attitude of "if not my way then the highway" will fit into Abuja political scene which has a lot to do with horse trading( give and take),teamwork and tolerance of other people opinions and differences

A person with Amaechi penchant for betrayal,grudge bearing, emotional immaturity, and inability to resolve political crisis/ difference in opinion may very likely not survive the brutal abuja political atmosphere.
But it is going to be interesting to see how the "Lion of Ubima" who has been tamed into a "house pet kitty of Ubima" by wike, will navigate the landscape of Abuja politics, what we will be watching out for will include:

1) what his 30 pieces of silver (political office) will be?
2) what he will do with those 30 peices of silver when he gets it?
3) will he accept the 30 pieces he will be handed or will he reject it and ask for more?
etc
You are free to add/speculate on what you think Amaechi's next step will be for the Amechi's watch has just began. LOL

I only wish Wike appoints him his chief of staff

the case of rivers and amaechi is like the case of jews and moses. the jews rejected moses and his god and by the time they tasted the goodies of other gods, they realised too late that they have been sold a dummy! they called on moses and his god to rescue them but it was already too late for them and they suffered 40 years of retrogression.

ireneidiva:

Crap. You seem to have forgotten what pdp did to amaechi during the gov forum election. He did not betray anyone. You guys need to chill. He is not leaving govt house in shame. He completed his tenure! And as a campaign manager, his candidate won. So get your yeye facts right.

Rivers people will in no distant time seek for amaechi and they will not find him cause he will be busy working towards the greater good of nigeria - and their governor and his jesus of okrika will take them 50 years backward.

in all the scenario, amaechi will be an all time winner and may likely be the next president from that region.

jazzydee:
The Split in the gov. forum was as a result of Amaechi's "If not my way then the Highway" philosophy of Amaechi, his tenure was over it was time to elect another governor from the north for that position since he had already filled the southern slot for 4 years, And as usual Amaechi choose the highway instead of equity.

This is one of the problems amaechi will have in Abuja, He does not know how to give and take, he is a dictator. this will make watching him in Abuja more fun.

jazzydee:
LOL Amaechi is an anathema to rivers politics, any attempt to bring him back to politics in rivers will be resisted by the over one million voters that voted against him and his party.

Pebcak:
if I hear long line
who will be in the front if not the likes of SAI FASHOLA, SAI AMEACHI, SAI NGIGE..........

ameachi is looking more like the next Minister of petroleum or NDCC boss

Josegun:
Go and write it down, Amechi will decide what happen in Niger-Delta as far as this regime is concern when it comes to Ministerial position, development or whatever from the Federal Government. And trust him, he will lord it over them.

atlwireles:
The sad reality for him is the complete lack of trust, the incoming powers in Abuja have for him. Nobody places their trust on a character like Amaechi. The APC leaders know, he is a man ready to sell them out at the turn of a kobo, so they wll keep close eyes on him. His actions in River State are an eye opener for them. He might end up as an ambassador to some country.

stanech:


he will not even be accepted in rivers state and remember that there will be no salary for ministers. under buhari. that guy go beg

stanech:


how much is nddc budget?

how much is rivers allocation?

Most of them are dumb ,they don't understand how the economy and the politics works here.

When Amaechi was turning Goodluck into moi moi how many minsters from the Niger Delta nominated by Jonathan confronted him?

Amaechi is powerless and would soon become useless - In fact with his antecedent there is no way that jagaban and Buhari will let him come in too close.

He'll remain a political orphan unless he's ready to sell to the PDP a silver bullet that would bring down the APC in 2019 else he has no bargaining chip - His only hope of installing a stooge called Dakuku failed woefully as the political structure of the state has been hijacked by the real owners of the state.

Nyesom Wike and those sons of Rivers State did a nice job out there.

Amaechi.....NTOI

stanech:


well aaid . Giving a formal governor of rivers state commissioner for nddc is actually an insult it is not an upgrade at all.

I am not sure bihari will make him minister of petroleum that will be a job for his most trusted ally probably a notherner amaechi go don't dey cry now its game over for him

omenka:
When you see ignorant folks like the op make foolish postulations, the best you can do is ignore them.

They've been masturbati^g over the sham they call election in Rivers forgetting that their Lord of host lost Abuja woefully.

Imagine what these guys would have been saying had they won Abuja.

Jorussia:
After may29 you guys here that is shouting that amaechi has lost all political relevance,will realise that Wike will be nothing but a big loser.Buhari will never betray amaechi.Amaechi will be SGF and there is nothing you guys can do about that.

notobs:


Pius Ayim was SFG, we have seen how much power he wielded
There is nothing that Buhari will give amaechi that will compensate for his loss of rivers state political base,the respect of his people and the perks that comes with coming home to a warm welcome at PH airport with the state official standing at ovation, something Amaechi will never enjoy again but his fellow ex- governors whose political structures are intact at the state level will enjoy.
