•‘Amaechi ran failed, dizzyingly-corrupt govt’

Minister of Transportation and former Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi has accused Governor Nyesom Wike of hiding wanted militants and cultists in the Government House.

Amaechi spoke yesterday on Sunrise Daily, a Channels Television programme. He alleged that the 23 caretaker committee chairmen were known militants.

The former governor, who said his relationship with Wike, his Chief of Staff between 2007 and 2011, became sour because of violence and corruption by his successor, predicted that Saturday’s legislative rerun would be peaceful in view of the assurances given by security agencies.

His words: “Wike is protecting killers; all his caretaker chairmen are known militants. The police recovered arms and ammunition from the home of Soboma Jackrich (chairman of Asari-Toru Council) and Jackrich is now living in the Government House.



“Wike must stop supporting violence by not encouraging the criminals, especially cultists and militants. Wike must allow persons who break the law to be punished. My relationship with Wike became sour, as my Chief of Staff, because of his violence and corruption.

“If a governor wines and dines with cultists and militants, he will embolden the criminals. As Rivers governor, I never sat down with cultists and militants. I did not support the Federal Government’s amnesty offer to repentant militants because you do not compensate criminals.

“Chief Godspower Ake (former Rivers State Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party) begged me to manage Wike as my Chief of Staff so people won’t notice there was a problem. Chuma Chinye (ex-Commissioner for Commerce and Industry) begged me to recommend Wike for a ministerial appointment in 2011. I accepted so as not to appear stubborn and that’s the worse decision I have made in my life.”

The minister lamented that the people were helpless in view of the deteriorating security, even as he accused governor Wike of failing to protect lives and property, which he swore on oath to do.

Amaechi maintained that cultism could never be attributed to members of the All Progressives Congress (APC), whom he described as God-fearing, insisting that only APC members were being killed. He challenged Wike to show Nigerians any PDP member killed.

He also denied harassing a policemen and his claim was corroborated by the police spokesman, Muhammad Ahmad.

Ahmad said: The attention of Rivers State Police Command has been drawn to the news making the rounds that Chibuike R. Amaechi, the Minister of Transportation, on March 12, along Port Harcourt-Omagwa Road, arrested and manhandled a policeman.

“The command wishes to state that the story is untrue and the act did not happen.”

But governor Wike, in his reaction through the Commissioner for Information and Communications, Dr. Austin Tam-George, alleged that Amaechi ran a failed and dizzyingly-corrupt government for eight years.

His words: “Amaechi has been indicted for stealing public fund by a court-approved Judicial Commission of Inquiry in Rivers State.

“His antics are a diversionary campaign to evade justice, through the rigging of the rerun legislative polls this weekend, but he will be defeated and brought to account.”

Wike said Amaechi was fighting for his “political life right now”, saying he understood his deadly desperation.

Why can't Amechi Iscariot a.k.a "Minister Of War & Too Much Talking go back to Abuja & leave Wike alone. River State don't like APC, why is he trynna force it down their throat??

ok

Amaechi noise is becoming irritating and nonsensical.

BeeBeeOoh:

Tit for Tat,when Amaechi was the governor and wiked was a minister same thing was happening abi u don quick forget

Cry me a river

Let see

Amaechi is one of the reasons for the political killings in Rivers State. He sponsors unrest and chaos in the state with the funds he stole from rivers state coffers. Just because you rebel against GEJ doesn't mean you should put the lives of APC followers in danger with your careless talk

You cliam you are the lion of ubima and the slayer of GEJ. How? PDP won rivers state mercilessly and your own people voted GEJ

You lost miserably and you want to shove APC into the minds of your people by sponsoring anarchy, incitement, unrest and resentment against the present governor.


APC kick Ameachi out. He is a misrepresentation of what APC stands for
This kind of attitude is what is expected of a PDP member

Amechi is looking for excuse to invade the Rivers Government house, but he's got his match in wike. Rivers State is PDP any day.

Their rerun elections should come and go fast, I'm tired of Wike this, Amaechi that already and more importantly, the unabated mindless killings in Rivers have to stop asap.

Why can't Amaechi concentrate on his Ministerial duties in Abuja and leave Rivers state in peace.
This Amaechi is a very wicked and devilish fellow,all he wants is war and blood sheds in Rivers state that's y he keeps uttering gory statements that can ferment war in a peaceful rivers state.
I thought Buhari has compensated his son Dakuku peterside with NIMASA DG appointment.
Amaechi ur days are numbered.
The death that will kill a dog won't let perceive the smell of feces.

Ameachi is desperate to run his parraell government in Rivers state.Since he's on ground to fight death match for his political life, I hope Wike obliges him.

May the strongest man win.

this boy has allowed sentiment to becloud his sense of reasoning and judgement. Even a todler knows APC members are very violent! They're worst than PDP members! So this foolish boy has suddenly forgotten how APC members killed Innocent corps members in bauchi and other northern parts? This is just one single case I can think of sef!!!

These two (Amaechi and Wike) should stop acting like gay.

Wetin sef??

Person no go fit hear as him girlfriend dey moan again all because of the noise wen these two stubborn men dey make.

Shoo!!

The nonsense in Rivers State has gotten way beyond politics.
Politicians that should know better have been all over the airwaves unnecessarily heating up the polity.
The electorate have become so polarized and riled up that it's now more or less a personalized do or die affair...and for simple legislative elections
The 2 elephants instigating all these are birds of the same feather..The killings going on in the state are being sponsored by both parties.
Not one of them is clean!
The enormous resources that are being expended in this election would have been better served elsewhere especially at a time wen most are complaining of the economy.
I think I should stop here But those of you that'll come on Nairaland to be fanning the embers of an already blazing fire that'll mostly consume the lives of every day citizens trying to make ends meet should RECEIVE SENSE

#nuff said

Amaechi is just moaning like a bitch in heat... mind you he ran a very corrupt adminstration and must account for the monies he stole from his state while he was in charge...

Who is acting minister of transport now, while Amaechi is being distracted in Rivers state?

THE NATION

PDP fans either have no sense or refuse to use it. Amaechi is behind the violence and it is APC members that are been killed?

Do you people not think or have you all sold your conscience?

So you want to tell us APC members are the ones killing themselves in order to fight Wike? They no longer kill PDP members but themselves?

Abeg use your conscience and brain. They are not for decoration.

By monday some diareah mouth ll stop running
I know they ll start crying foul but the people ve made their choice.
#AviolencefreeRiverselection

Why can't Amechi go back to Abuja and focus on his job? Why is he going around making inciting statements? .... Make the rerun come and go so that everyone will rest.

Amaechi wants to use the coming Rivers re-run to prove to his party that he is politically relevant. He is ready to sacrifice as many people as he can. It is a shame people are buying into his style again.

He attacks and keep shouting like the victim. This is the technique he employed against GEJ. Before, he complained about federal might being bigger than state might. Today, he is complaining of state might being bigger than federal might. Win or lose, he wants to cause so much trouble to get Buhari to announce a state of emergency in Rivers state. But we are wiser now; a state of emergency does not translate to removing a sitting Governor. His plans has failed again.

irunooboo:
[size=13pt]APC must win rivers rerun so they can impeach and jail that killer thug called Wike. with federal might, Amaechi will laugh last [/size]

Thanks for letting us know who we are dealing with.
