Breaker001:


But Ameachi was Minister of Transport, right? Yet he couldn't collaborate with the Minister of works to fix the East-West road for eight years. He was just not a minister, he was a "super" minister, for 8 solid years; why did he not fix that road. Today, he has the mouth to talk and criticize, because he is hungry for "God-knows-what.

Why not call out the works minister Fashola that didnt fix the road for eight years?

Breaker001:


Yes, I am aware of that. But he had the access, and the power to get that road done. Under Buhari, Ameachi was (more or less) invincible. At some point, even Asiwaju was not as relevant as he was in that government. Yet he couldn't use his influence within the government to get that road done.

Today, we have another influential Rivers State man in the Tinubu presidency....Wike. Let him use his influence to ensure that the East-West Coastal Road is fixed

AkumTemi:


Respect for Amaechi, na man you be. We still the charade that happened in 2015 in Rivers state.

We the charade that made Amaechi governor in the first place
A man that was not even on the ballot box somehow declared governor by the courts.

When that happens his ers will sing that the Nigerian judiciary is the best

You know what you know and I know what I know


What has rascality got to do with Wike and Amaechi specifically

I said one thing and you just introduce an irrelevant and tangential thing

What is rascality. You are being emotional

What I said is that in Rivers State Wike is more influential than Amaechi .

Amaechi could not deliver Rivers to APC in 2015 but Wike did in 2023

That's the rascality he or she was trying to portray to you...

How did he do that if he didn't import rascality

Or was it the mind of Rivers State people to vote for APC and deliver Rivers to Jagaban??

Amaechi could not deliver Rivers State because he has this integrity of doing the right thing rather than using all means to achieve an aim that can be disastrous...

Buhari could have forced a Muslim Muslim ticket but he didn't , not because he was weak or doesn't know Politics but it was against his integrity and believe that Nigeria doesn't need such a division and pose of power from one Religion...

I hate pretenders more like I love transparent arguments ...
If you don't want to come out clean, hide your self pls...

brain54:

My own point is that he was straight forward...

I mean about not ing Atiku.

He made his stance known about not giving him his ...for whatever selfish reasons he may have had.

That's why I said with wike you always know his stance and what to expect.

Do you know some other politicians may have kept quiet even though disgruntled, come out openly and pretend to Atiku. While silently working underground to scuttle his victory?

That's what most do!

Fair enough.
But this doesnt change the fact that he remains a serial traitor himself. There is no one who has helped him who he has not betrayed and insulted. Secondly he is a crude, rude, guttter man way too desperate for power and control.

Amaechi, no comparison, is way ahead and have class.

By the biggest and most open rigging in history.

Can you explain a little more please?

Any job that comes with salary be it political or any form is employment.

aribisala0:
There is a difference between employee and appointee

Amaechi has a big ego

Truth is as far as Rivers State politics is concerned Wike has more say, more clout and more relevance

Amaechi laid the ground work for the APC istration to enter governance, he has no right to complain.

For all the funds contributed all he got as reward was to be promoted to chief driver of the APC.

Atleast Wike is a chef which is more respectable. But why are the ex-governors from Rivers always depicted as domestic helpers?

Mahenson:

Call out Fashola for what?? Ameachi should just stop acting like a saint. If I were to call out anyone, it would certainly not be Fashola.

As the super works minister who failed to fix the east west road, Have u forgotten he was the works minister? But you are calling a transport minister for a failure from the works minister.

SusanOpeyemi:
That's because Nigeria is a lawless country. The judiciary is for the highest bidder.

Weaker people trade blames without taking any action to tell the person that you are better. Amechi and Wike in rivers are not the reason for lawlessness or judiciary manipulation, it's what all Nigeria want they get. Amaechi did not obey court order during is tenure is the beginning of what he is crying. now.

Traitor is a big word here...

I am not sure about that though. I think wike is committed once he decides to or fight a cause... well, until his interest changes.

Look at the way he stood by and ed the PDP faithfully as an example. He had a cult like dedication to that party.

Politicians disagree all the time, because their interests and intentions change over time. So they mostly have to form new alliances with time.

Especially as they grow politically.

I think no one can be so direct and blunt in their manner of approach as wike that wouldn't keep having problems with people.

I think that's the problem with his approach and not that the politicians don't have clashes with themselves.

Wike takes his stance... good or bad; I wouldn't argue about that, but he is never sneaky about them!

SusanOpeyemi:
Just like after saying before the PDP presidential primary election that he will whoever emerged as the party's candidate, only to later reneged on his word.

Thank you jare. They think that we have a short memory.

2023: PDP and politics of healing Wike’s self-inflicted injury

Then, the race began in earnest for three years now, reaching a frenzy with the works of the two PDP committees on zoning. The first was the Gov Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi committee on the zoning of the PDP party offices. The Ugwuanyi committee quickly told the world the committee’s assignment did not cover zoning the office of the president. Though this was true, the question is: why didn’t the Ugwuanyi committee zone the PDP chairmanship to the North without aligning it to the divide that would produce the PDP presidential flag-bearer? The second committee headed by Gov Samuel Ortom of Benue state was specifically on the zoning of the presidential ticket and, with the votes of the representatives of all the 17 Southern states without any exception, the Committee unanimously recommended throwing open the PDP presidential ticket, which the PDP NEC simply upheld.

One thing irrefutably stands out – Wike shot himself in the leg. Here was a man who had an overarching influence on both committees but could not insist that the ticket be zoned South. Many had wondered why? The reason is also relatively in plain sight: the Southeast factor. As the clamour for zoning of the presidential ticket of the PDP to South reached its crescendo, many had pointed out the fact that though the PDP Constitution had prescribed zoning of the office of the president to be between North and South since the South-west and South-south had taken their turns in producing the president and the vice in this current dispensation in the persons of Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, zoning this time around, should not just be to the South but the Southeast.

Atiku Abubakar went a step further by offering to step down from the race if it would be agreed that the touted zoning to the South would mean micro-zoning to the Southeast. Wike and the rest could not take the Atiku challenge maybe because Atiku would likely back Peter Obi, who was his vice-presidential running mate in 2019 and an ally. The prospects of Peter Obi picking the ticket if PDP zoned South was so real compelling Wike to go for an open contest, believing he could pick it up ahead of Atiku, Tambuwal and Bala Mohammed, given his large war chest.

What's the difference between employee and appointee?

Is the CoS an employee or appointee

Maxymilliano:
Wike was his appointee and not employee ...

But there was more between both parties than meet the eyes. Same with Wike and Sim Fubara

What's the difference between employee and appointee

That was an upper cut well delivered by Amaechi

You have described him very well.

ddippset:
Says a man who hijacked the party and singlehandedly produced the last 4 National Chairmen of the party for his own selfishness.

Says a man who accepted nomination to be running mate to Fulani Atiku.
He knew it was injustice to give Atiku the ticket yet he lobbied to be the VP.


He knew the party had to go South for the 2023 election, yet he still put Secondus as National Chaiman just to hijack the party..
Only to push Secondus out because he wanted the ticket 2023.

This man remains the biggest problem of PDP.

He can only deceive and fool his minions, not reasonable people.

Lol
Even Bill Gates was once someone's employee so i don't really buy that.
But Tinibu should for savings from oil subsidy removal.
Whether directly or indirectly we have all been contributing "Ajo"( thrift collection)every single day to this government through direct oil consumption or consumption of oil related services.

You seem not to understand the tremendous power that was in the hands of Ameachi during the Buhari era, especially when Abba Kyari was alive. He could get anything he wanted, if he so wished. Ameachi was 10 times more powerful than Fashola, yet, he couldn't use that influence to fix the East-West road. Okay, why didn't he think of building a East-West RAILROAD. but was busy building railroads to the North and into Niger Republic. Abeg, leave this people. All they care about is themselves

So Amaechi paid Wike a salary from his resources?

Image123:
Wike 2 Amaechi 0

Both talk anyhow, both cannot manage people under them or keep them in check, both are hardworking, one can deliver rig votes.

It's funny that the same individuals that cried to high heavens when Obasanjo carried out the heist in 2007 are today worshipping election riggers and their hail their capacity to "deliver" votes
What kind of citizens are ye?

stuffs2002:
Ameachi is not intelligent not to know the difference between appointee and employee.

Wike worked for Rivers state and not Ameachi since Ameachi is not the government of Rivers state

The title is actually chief of staff to the governor not government. The CoS is a personal employee of the office holder. The title came out from personal secretary during the days of Franklin Roosevelt's US presidency
