The Sins Of Amaechi (3) by Nobody: 7:59am On May 24, 2017 |
https://www.thenigerianvoice.com/news/215716/the-sins-of-amaechi-3.html By Solomon Okocha "The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet." - Aristotle The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Center reports that as of 2005, 40% of school-age children in Africa did not attend primary school and there are still 46 million school-age African children who have never stepped into a classroom. A regional report produced by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization - Bureau for Education in Africa (UNESCO-BREDA) education sector analyst team in 2005 indicates that less than 10% of African children are now allowed in the system. Four out of 10 children did not complete primary school in 2002/2003. The above reports have one thing in common: primary education is on the decline in Africa. In order to curb the rising menace of poor primary education in Africa, certain recommendations for reform were laid on the table by UNESCO namely: more comprehensive training of head teachers and administrators in economical administration, regular government inspection of schools, encourage parents to complain or fight against schools fees and proactively help parents to know their rights, empower and mobilize local watchdog organizations such as parent-teacher organizations and school-management committees. I am very sure that Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, had spent quality time studying the United Nations' policy on education. This is because in 2007, few days after he was sworn in as the 5th Governor of Rivers State, he embarked on what many have described as an unbeatable educational landmark in Rivers State, and Nigeria at large. The impact of the Amechi-led educational revolution reverberated throughout the globe, and international accolades poured in endlessly. The former Governor of Rivers State, who is now the present Minister of Transportation, spent half of his first term in office constructing model primary schools across the length and breadth of the state. It is on record that there is no single local government area in the state that did not benefit from Amaechi's robust infrastructural development in the educational sector. Not only did Amaechi erect international standard primary schools 'everywhere you go' in Rivers State, he also embarked on the training and recruitment of over 13,000 teachers. This record is yet to be beaten in Nigeria. No Governor past or present, has employed that gigantic number of manpower for education in a single day. For the first time in the history of Rivers State, primary schools were fully equipped with modern science and arts learning tools. Amaechi's primary schools were designed with laboratories, halls, libraries, ICT centers, gardens, sports facilities. Many of the schools had solar power on standby to compliment with normal power supply. Adequate measures were also taken to ensure security. Unlike before when a typical primary school in Rivers State was no man's land, where primary school pupils daily clashed with child molesters and thieves, Amaechi ensured that security was stable in the new schools. With well fenced compounds and well paid private security staff, the issue of insecurity became a thing of the past in our Primary schools. This Writer believes that many people don't know or perhaps have forgotten that primary education was completely free during Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi's tenure in office. In line with the Universal Basic Education (UBE) - free and compulsory education scheme, no primary school pupil was charged any form of levy in Rivers State during this period. It is also on record that school uniforms, sandals/sneakers, bags, and books were all freely distributed to the school children at the beginning of every term. What manner of Nigerian politician is this? I ask. Judging by Amaechi's educational drive, It was no surprise when the World Book Capital was moved to Port Harcourt in 2015. The World Book Capital is a title bestowed by UNESCO to a city in recognition of the quality of its programs to promote books and reading and the dedication of all players in the book industry. Wow! Everyone, save greedy politicians were happy with Amaechi for this feat. Felicitating with the River State Government, Prof. Wole Soyinka, Nobel Laureate for Literature and Goodwill Ambassador/Member of the High Panel for Peace, UNESCO, said: “For us in the Book World, still basking in the glow of a Nigerian city bestowed with the honour of the World Book Capital for 2014, this is a much-deserved recognition. We look forward to next year in Port Harcourt, a historic capital city festooned with the written word with all its spiritually liberating manifestations. We congratulate and felicitate with Governor Amaechi on this happy occasion. He is a role model who has risen above every distraction imaginable orchestrated by the Federal Government to continue to provide purposeful government for the good people of Rivers State." Till date, encomiums towards Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi's educational crusade in Rivers State have continued to flow freely like a spring that never runs dry. The intellectuals were happy, but the political hawks were angry; Amaechi was wasting Rivers money on the construction of too many schools. In the end, may all those who seek the sweet fruit of education pray thus: O God of creation, may earth never be in want of leaders like Amaechi, who would continue to sin against sons of men, for the good of humanity.

Amaechi's records of positive development are just too awesome for a wicked propaganda to overshadow. The best primary schools in Nigeria today are Amaechi's schools. What are the records of Gej and Wike on Education? 6 month ASUU strike under Wike's management? God bless workaholic Amaechi ....I just dey imagine if Amaechi were the President instead of that mumu who stole n shared all the proceeds from about $100/ barrel oil sales for 5 years. 4 Likes |

Amaechi did some infrastructure development but that was only in his first tenor. Thereafter he devoted his time only to politics and doing so cost rivers state immeasurably. Under Amechi's watch, Trans Amadi road degraded steadily until it was in ruins. Off all roads, Trans Amadi main and link roads ought to be priority number one. This is because it hosts majority of oil and gas production and services companies and a lot of other business with huge potential to grow IGR and even foreign investment. Most companies have now relocated to better regions like Lagos where government have provided better infrastructure. Why he abandoned that road all through his tenor is difficult to appreciate. Perhaps someone can offer some explanations. There is the link road connecting East/west road to the International Airport? This road would alleviate suffering and provide opportunity for further development out of Port Harcourt city but it was abandoned all through Amachi’s tenor. |

[s] Babacele:[/s] Dude y are u diz unstable? D topic of discussion is amaechi and nt GEJ! Amaechi is a betrayer bcuz he went against d wishes of his pple to embezzle funds meant for his state to fund apc elections while rivers pple suffered non payment of salaries to lack of funds to run projects. Amaechi chose to close a Maritime University in his region and rather preferred it in d north. How many railway paths cross ur Rivers state? What is Amaechis short n long term plans for rivers state as minister of transportation? When u say clueless Amaechi comes first. Instead of him tryin 2 kill himself by forcefully bringing d evil broom to rivers state he should tell d pple what his short n long term plans as minister are for rivers state. And like i said, ure nt a political gladiator, just a young dude who probably pinched a few crumbs frm Amaechis fraudulent benevolence. So well, like i said, challenge ur master to relocate his residence to portharcourt, if he really believes he's popular. Oh well like i said earlier, as long as Wike is on d throne, Amaechi will always bite d dust of failure like d lizard he is ![]() 3 Likes

[quote author=Okocha101 post=56855654][/quote] so how many days today since the useless Ultimatum? why is he afraid to institute a legal proceeding against the EFCC or FG as he had boasted ? isnt it because rather than innocent Amaechi ,it is Wike, Gej and ,pdp that stole and kept that $43m in the ikoyi house acquired with stolen state money by immediate national chairman of PDP ? ain't you ashamed of calling Amaechi after all these revelations? |
Re: The Sins Of Amaechi (3) by Babacele: 10:00am On May 25, 2017 |
EricBloodAxe:it is obvious you damn ignorant. so if I go to the street, press, radio or TV, spewing lies about you means you are guilty? is not a competent law court that I should approach to establish my case? Amaechi has no immunity and River State government do not need any EFCC or what not to approach law courts to prosecute Amaechi if it has anything against him rather than all these nonsense shows to amuse people like you. Abi no be same courts made Wike the governor of Rivers? Why is Wike delaying? |
