The feud between Minister of State for the Education, Chief Nyesom Wike, and the Rivers State Governor, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, took a fresh turn on Sunday when he (Wike) declared that Amaechi’s government has failed.
Wike, who made this declaration on Sunday at his residence in Port Harcourt while receiving elders, women and youths from Rumueme Kingdom, Obio/Akpor Local Government, described the governor’s monorail project as a death trap.
He also pointed out that the Old GRA in Port Harcourt was no longer what it used to be, adding that some of the roads in the state capital were in deplorable condition.
The minister urged his visitors to ensure that they get their permanent voters card. and vote out the All Progressive Congress-led government in the state
He accused Amaechi of abusing elders and disrespecting traditional institutions in the state, maintaining that the state governor would not be able to develop Rumueme in Obio/Akpor with only seven months to be in office.
According to him, “There is one death trap they call monorail. Yes, we know that one day, we must die, but with the monorail I am seeing there, I will not take such risk. The monorail is a death trap.
“Tell them to tell their children to go there (monorail) first. Look at the Old GRA; if you are driving in the night, you will see that it does not look like the Old GRA. The roads are bad and it shows that this government has failed.”
“Your voter card is the only power you have to ensure that you vote APC out and tell APC to pack and go. The APC is a drug that has been banned for many years.
“You must be armed with your voter card because without it, you don’t have the competence to talk about who will be the governor and who will be the President.”
Wike urged the people of the state not to listen to those who said that President Goodluck Jonathan hated them, adding that the people of the state will work together as a “United and one Rivers State.”
He appealed to the people to support President Jonathan’s re-election, promising that a PDP-led government will never forget them.
Reacting, the Chief of Staff, Government House, Port Harcourt, Chief Tony Okocha, said it was unfortunate that Wike could describe the monorail that would begin to function in December as a death trap. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Wike is a failure as a minister of state of education.
ReplyDeleteHe was not made the minister of education because of his inability to steer the ship.
He should forget the idea of becoming the governor of rivers in 2015 period.
His other name is thief and lack morale justification to campaign for that seat.
He should be told that Nigerians has come of age. We know his game plans.
On point man! He was a diastrous failure as Obio Akpor LGA Chairman where he STOLE to the pulp! Rivers people shine ya eyes o!
