APC In Rivers Today by bappahman: 2:38pm On Nov 05, 2013 |
APC leaders in Port Harcourt to woo Governor Amaechi — LIVE UPDATES The leaders of the opposition All Progressives Congress, led by former Head of State, Muhammadu Buhari, party Chairman Bisi Akande and former Governor Bola Tinubu have arrived the Rivers Government House, Port Harcourt. An elaborate reception ceremony is being held for them. UPDATE 1: Some of the APC leaders in attendance are Buhari, Akande, Tinubu, former Speaker of the House of Representative, Aminu Masari, former Governor John Oyegun, National Vice Chairman of the APC for the South South, Tom Ikimi … UPDATE 2: Deputy Chairman of the New PDP, Sam Jaja, is now speaking. The crowd is massive here. It is a massive political carnival. There is a lot of dancing and rejoicing. UPDATE 3: Mr. Jaja welcomed the visitors and promised that the leadership of Rivers state is ready to lay down their lives to defend the state and its people. UPDATE 4: APC Chairman, Bisi Akande, described Governor Amaechi as bundle of courage, a brilliant man being persecuted. “He is a leader of the leaders. And we think we will not go home without asking you, through him to join the APC. APC is the party of the progressives and that is where Rivers state belongs.” UPDATE 5: Tinubu said amidst cheers: “We were ready to come yesterday but the airspace was blocked. We did not want to offend anybody so we put our visit for today. “Amaechi is a progressive. He is a visionary. He is focused. We know the basis of his persecution. It is because he fought for the oil and revenue of Rivers state. He is doing well. He is giving our children the greatest weapon against poverty – education. “I urge you to ask Governor Amaechi to lead you to the APC. The progressives are offering the rescue boat. This is a mission to rescue Nigeria.” UPDATE 6: Ikimi speaks: “We have seen for ourself that Rotimi Amaechi is indeed in charge of Rivers state. This young man is prepared to pursue his believe to the last, based on courage and conviction. It is on these principles that APC was formed. With APC, there is an alternative platform and there is a balance of power. “APC means Aspirin, Panadol, Codeine. When you have strong headache, you take these drugs. “APC also means Armoured Personnel Carrier. You use it to move forward when yeye police stop you.” UPDATE 7: Buhari: “We are here to seek understanding and support from you through your leader, Governor Amaechi. I worked with one of your greatest assets, Prof Tam David West. “Nigeria is at a crossroad and that is why we decided to come together to rescue this country from destruction. We must get together and get this country moving again. I congratulate Gov. Amaechi for providing education for the people of the state.” UPDATE 8: It is now time for goodwill messages from leaders and politicians from the state. The chairmen of the 23 local govts have mounted the stage and are dancing. They are all expected to speak on behalf of their local governments. UPDATE 9: A local government chairman and chairman of ALGON in the state, is speaking. He says, “We need to move away from the current cluelessness, visionlessness and purposefullessness. We need to embrace patriotism. Wherever our leader (Amaechi) leads us, we will follow because we have no reason to doubt his ability to lead 4 Likes |

Re: APC In Rivers Today by gurnam: 2:54pm On Nov 05, 2013 |
bappahman: Will ameachi alone be able to take rivers away from PDP He is on ground.....he dispenses the largest political patronage in the state. He can conveniently help to get a very huge chunk of the votes away from PDP......meaning that PDP will not win by landslide the way they did last time in Rivers. In politics.....a couple of million votes can determine the swing... |
Re: APC In Rivers Today by eye4eye: 2:59pm On Nov 05, 2013 |
Could it be that APC is giving us head-fake and gearing towards allowing Amaechi to be their presidential flagbearer? This is a possibility. |

Does it mean that whosoever has a problem with Goodluck is progressive, even when such misunderstanding is selfish?

He is one of the financier of APC but most of you dont know that. This is to create awareness of APC inevitable popularity. Amaechi will declare to join sometime next year. All the 23 local government chairmen in Rivers State said they're ready to join him in APC when the time arises. It is matter of time. Get it into your Igbo. |

Imagine if we have APC controlling Rivers, Imo and Anambra. Its progress guaranteed. No more tribalism and religious intolerance which has been a PDP slogan. All the roads in the 3 States will be upgraded and the cities modernized. Abia is surely coming to APC in 2015. All their federal roads apart from Enugu/Ph is in shambles courtesy of PDP Federal Government and a clueless State Government. |
Re: APC In Rivers Today by KwoiZabo(m): 3:43pm On Nov 05, 2013 |
Amaechi is both tired and confused Today they will say we won't leave PDP Tomorrow they'll run to OBJ (Amaechi's Arc enemy) Next tomorrow they'll consider PDM (under Atiku OBJ's chief enemy) The following day they'll welcome APC. This a political madness that clint d drunk describes as "multiple ndralulu in random motion" 2 Likes |

Amaechi can comfortably deliver his state to APC during gubernatorial if he joins but a typical rivers man will still vote Jonathan in presidential. It still doesn't matter, retardeen won't still win. |
Re: APC In Rivers Today by thaoriginator: 3:45pm On Nov 05, 2013 |
bappahman:Amaechi for presidnet? No, it can't be! Thou I believe he's capable but, he can do it too cos he is bold and fearless. We need a fearless and no-nonsense man as president to tackle all dis ediot cabals in every nooks and crannies of power. Buhari is in dat position, either Amaechi, Fashola or Okroacha will be suitable for vice..

Sorry to burst your bubble, Rivers is 100% PDP. Amaechi is a traitor We shall deal with him the moment he vacates that seat. Beside the nicompoop has been rendered politically paralysed in Rivers Politics. Neither him nor his jokers LGA chairmen control the political structure of the state. Rivers ppl shall prove their total luv 4 PDP in 2015. PDP is Rivers State |

In Rivers State, almost all the politicians working against Amaechi are all out of positions since Amaechi became the Governor until recently when GEJ is giving them little leverage to pamper their ego to go fight against Amaechi. I beg anyone/anybody to differ on this or challenge me constructively, There is nobody in that camp fighting against Amaechi that has a credible record. When you see them or hear them talk, you just identify toutism, corruption, thuggery, greed, sycophancy etc. Let's just wait and I pray APC(Ngige) wins the Anambra state guber election, then the Politics of 2015 will become more fierce and clearer. Anambra state election will definitely be a serious game changer for 2015. 4 Likes |

Anyone who still thinks that 2015 election will be an easy ride for GEJ is wrong. It's normal for his supporters to beat their chest and talk of political structures. What structures? When u have all 23 LG chairmen, 27 HOA memers, 2 senators and many HOR. Can PDP win a national election without rigging. Will u be able to rig Lagos, Rivers and Kano without the support of the govs and their chairmen. I tell u GEJ and his fans must be peeing in their pants right now especially when PDP is in chaos. 2 Likes |

Re: APC In Rivers Today by Nobody: 11:39pm On Nov 05, 2013 |
simpleseyi:lol... So Oyinlola, Agagu, Osoba, Adefarati, Akala, Ohiakim, and all other incumbents that lost had All the LGA chairs and all appointees on their side. Even Muazu couldn't win senate seat as an incumbent governor. Let me give you a practical example, Gov Boni Haruna of Adamawa defected frm Pdp to AC in 2006 along with VP Atiku. Opposition danced skelewu, but after election PDP Nyako won the seat by LANDslide. In political electioneering, what's important is not who controls the government but who controls political structures. Amaechi as at today controls d government but I can boast that he doesn't control the structure in his Ikwerri. He is a political cripple in Rivers State I will educate you all more in 2015... |
